Zeb Alford, a fourteen year old from Raleigh, NC can claim that title. He has been shooting at hoops since he was 3 years old, his father says, and the practice has finally paid off.
Alford, an eighth grader at Martin Middle School, hit an unbelievable 97 out of 100 shots, to win the Elks Hoop Shoot in Springfield, Massachusetts. That's not bad, considering that the professionals only average about ninety percent.
When asked about his future plans, Alford hinted at perhaps college ball, maybe even playing for North Carolina. I hope so. We'd love to have him.
