<h6>In Western PA these high school basketball players are never intimidated to shoot the long-distance three-pointer. Not only can they "pull it" from about 20 feet, but some tend to "light it up" from 25 feet or more during games. Whether in a set offense, coming off screens, running the baseline against the zone, or in transition, watch for the following young men to "knock down" three-point shots from anywhere on the court. With the game of basketball changing to a more perimeter style, these guys have adapted and developed a skill-set that transitions perfectly to the current game. </h6>
