mark bakkum...his three-point range extends about three or four feet behind the arc...he stretched a defense like no other kid in class b basketball last season....maybe the packineau boys but they were the only others i saw that were comparable.
personally i think bakkum is the best guard coming back in region 3
as for hintz, i hope that the state experience pbk had this season made him grow as a player. he seemed so reluctant with the ball at this year's tournament and it will be interesting to see what happens when he has the green light this season. also, with pbk losing their starting five, he is going to have to shoulder a ton for that team to even be .500. while it is certainly possible, i think the rebels will be faced next season with the same situation as new rockford had this past season. they'll be alright, but they are going to be starting essentially from further back than a lot of other teams.
