Senior Harper Gideons Commits to Continue her Academic and Athletic Careers at Colorado College
Gideons is the 7th Tartan student-athlete to commit to a college or university during the 2024-2025 school year.
St. Margaret's Episcopal School is pleased to announce that Harper Gideons has committed to continue her academic and athletic career at NCAA Division-III Colorado College in Colorado Springs, Colo.
Gideons, a team captain and four-year starter for the Tartan girls basketball program, is a two-time All-CIF selection, four-time All-League nominee across three different Orange County leagues, and a CIF Player of the Year and All-Orange County awardee. Gideons will leave St. Margaret's as the all-time career wins (81) leader and career three-pointers made (246) record holder. Gideons also ranks second in career points, fourth in career steals and fifth in career assists.
In Gideons' storied high school career, the Tartans ranked as a Top 25 team in Orange County in three consecutive seasons, had back-to-back CIF-SS Championship appearances and notched the first-ever CIF Championship in girls basketball in school history.
Off the court, Gideons is a dedicated volunteer at the Infant Pantry, a passionate mentor and speaker for the deaf and hard of hearing community, and is the author of a children's book titled Now Hear This, a story about Gideons' navigating hearing loss and rising above it.
"Harper will continue to grow as a player, student, and person at Colorado College. A high-level school and high-level program will be gaining a high-level human," said St. Margaret's girls basketball head coach Josh Markum. "Congratulations on this next chapter—you've earned every bit of it!"
