Coeur d'Alene senior is two-time honoree after returning from broken hand to lead Vikings to 11th state title.
Each year since 2006, MaxPreps has recognized outstanding performers in prep girls basketball. America's source for high school sports continues the tradition to close out the 2023-24 season by naming the top player in each state. Selections are based on team success and individual excellence in addition to local and state accolades.

Coeur d'Alene is the 2023-24 Idaho MaxPreps Player of the Year. The 5-foot-7 senior point guard earns the honor for the second straight year after leading the Vikings to a 20-5 record and Class 5A state championship.
Colvin averaged 17.8 points, 5.5 rebounds and 3.8 assists per game. She played in 20 of her team's 25 contests after missing several weeks with a fracture in her shooting hand.
