Northview boys basketball head coach Shawn Nevill was proud to learn of Fowler becoming a recipient of the Crawley Scholarship, an honor that goes to approximately 1.4 percent of IBCA members.

“Josh is everything you want in a senior leader. He is accountable, great in the classroom, and keeps the other players in line,” said Nevill of Fowler. “I couldn't be prouder that he was selected as one of only 34 to receive this scholarship. He is the epitome of a student-athlete.”
