Storm Lake’s Jaidyn Coon Named to 2026 Pizza Ranch/IBCA Northwest All‑Star Team

Storm Lake High School senior Jaidyn Coon has been named to the 2026 Pizza Ranch/Iowa Basketball Coaches Association Senior All‑Star Series and will represent the Northwest region on a 12‑player roster at the March 28 games in Grimes. The event is organized by Pizza Ranch and the Iowa Basketball Coaches Association and will be played at Dallas Center‑Grimes High School.

Local sports listings also name Cam Boyd of Storm Lake alongside Coon as selections to the 2026 Pizza Ranch IBCA Senior All‑Star Series, meaning Storm Lake will have at least two players on the Northwest roster. The all‑star format divides the state into four regions - Northwest, Northeast, Southwest and Southeast - with each regional roster capped at 12 players who will face the three other regional teams from around Iowa.

Game timing and the event schedule are set: first‑round games begin at 10:45 a.m. for the girls and 12:00 noon for the boys on March 28. Championship and consolation contests are scheduled for 2:45 p.m. for the girls and 4:00 p.m. for the boys, all at Dallas Center‑Grimes High School in Grimes. With each regional team selecting 12 players, the Northwest squad that includes Coon and Boyd will play multiple short games under that single‑day schedule.

Coon’s selection officially places her among a dozen seniors representing the Northwest region; the announcement attributes the all‑star selections to Pizza Ranch and the IBCA. No player or coach quotes have been published in the available local notices, and a full Northwest roster and additional event details such as coaching assignments have not been released in the materials reviewed here.

For Storm Lake High School, the presence of Coon and Boyd on the Northwest roster brings a March 28 statewide spotlight to local players and the program. The games at Dallas Center‑Grimes provide a single‑day showcase format for senior standouts across Iowa; Storm Lake supporters who plan to travel to Grimes can note the girls’ first‑round tip at 10:45 a.m. and the boys’ noon start, with finals in the afternoon.

Further verification of complete rosters, official IBCA or Pizza Ranch releases, and any ticketing or broadcast information will confirm teammates and coaching assignments ahead of the March 28 all‑star contests.
