COLUMBUS, Ohio—Jared Sullinger, a 6-foot-9 senior who led Columbus Northland High School to an undefeated season, has won the Naismith Award as the top prep boys player in the country.

His father and coach, James "Satch" Sullinger, received the award as the nation’s top boys high school coach.

Northland (21-0) is ranked No. 1 by USA Today. The younger Sullinger, who has signed to play at Ohio State next year, is the reigning Associated Press Mr. Basketball in Ohio and led the Vikings to the state title a year ago.

Cypress Fairbanks senior Chiney Ogwumike won the girls award and the top girls coach was Sean Casey of The Peddie School in Highstown, N.J.

The awards, announced Wednesday, are presented by The Atlanta Tipoff Club.
