He averaged 38.1 points this season, more than double the average of the area’s No. 2 scorer, Lakota East’s Alex White (17.6).
Bales, a 1995 Franklin graduate, directed the Wildcats to a 26-2 record and a berth in the Division II regional finals.
He is the school’s athletic director and has a 129-53 record in eight years at the Franklin helm. The Wildcats haven’t had a losing record since his first season (6-15) in 2007-08.
