Iowa Miss Basketball

Each year the Iowa Miss Basketball award is given to the person chosen as the best high school girls basketball player in the U.S. state of Iowa, in the United States.

The award has been given since 1981. Winners are chosen by the Iowa Newspaper Association at the time of their annual All-State selections.[1] From 1990 to 1993, two awards were given, one for a 5-on-5 player and one for a 6-on-6 player, when girls in Iowa played in the two systems based on division. Prior to 1990, all high school girls in Iowa played 6-on-6 basketball.

Voting is done on a points system. Each voter selects first, second, and third-place votes. A player receives five points for each first-place vote, three points for each second-place vote, and one point for a third-place vote. The player who receives the most points receives the award.
