On Saturday, Jan. 7, Phoenix Country Day School students shined in the Elks Club National Free-Throw Shooting Competition in Wickenburg, where one of Arizona’s four regional championships took place.
In his first year in the 8-9 year-old division PCDS second-grader Carson Rose finished third, having to prevail in a double-overtime shootout to capture one of the top three slots, according to a press release.
His older brother Logan Rose, a fourth-grader at PCDS, won the 10-11 year-old division
and now moves onto the State Championships Feb. 11, in Apache Junction where the winners from each of Arizona’s four regions will square off.
