The shot clock must pass two additional votes \u2014 both at later dates \u2014 to officially be greenlit.<\/p>\n
Lancaster-Lebanon League coaches had mixed opinions when the steering committee dismissed the shot-clock recommendation last month.<\/p>\n
\u201cI like the debate because it makes people talk about high school basketball,\u201d Manheim Central boys coach Charlie Fisher said in an interview with LNP | LancasterOnline. \u201cI don’t think one way or another. I’m sort of in that mode where it\u2019s sort of a win-win. \u2026 There\u2019s pros and cons to both.\u201d<\/p>\n
“I do wish we would go with the shot clock,” Lebanon girls coach Jaime Walborn said via text. “It keeps the game moving and forces players to make quick decisions and play with some urgency. It just makes it more competitive.”<\/p>\n
Pennsylvania would join 31 states and Washington D.C. in the acceptance of a shot clock at the high-school level.<\/p>\n
The PIAA administered two surveys \u2014 one in April and one in 2022 \u2014 to gauge the standing of the shot clock with member schools. The former leaned in favor while the 2022 survey yielded a 50.8% result for objection.<\/p>\n
