A free-throw tradition dating back more than 50 years was held at Carlynton High School on Jan. 11, sponsored by the Carnegie Elks and organized by Gary Marches, a retired reading specialist for North Hill School District and former member of the Carlynton School Board. ”

Each year, The Elks “Hoop Shoot” Free Throw Contest engages more than three million boys and girls, ages 8-13. The competition highlights the Elks commitment to America’s youth. From the millions of youngsters who participate and advance through local, district, state and regional competition, six national champions are named — one boy and one girl in each of three categories: ages 8-9, 10-11 and 12-13.
