The Indiana High School Athletic Association (IHSAA) is set to vote on a proposal to implement a 35-second shot clock for varsity basketball games during its board meeting on May 4. This proposal, backed by the Indiana Basketball Coaches Association, faces significant opposition, with recent straw polls indicating that about 70% of principals are against it. Concerns include the cost of implementation, estimated at around $10,000 per school, and the need for additional personnel to manage the shot clock. Currently, 66 schools in Indiana are equipped with shot clocks in their main gyms. As of the 2025-26 season, 32 states have adopted shot clocks at the high school level, with Alabama being the latest to approve a 35-second shot clock for the 2026-27 season. If the proposal fails, it may be revisited in two years, depending on the desires of the coaches' association members.
