[B]The High school game works on both floors. I don't think that most high school players even know that there is a difference most of the time. They know something is different but they don't know what. A Junior High game or an elementary level game on the big floor is a different story. Many of the elementary games are done on floors even down to 74 feet. So they would know the diffence in a heartbeat.

There is a Jr. High tourney in town here every fall and they play at the local jr. college. Let me tell you, the younger players are out of gas on that 94' floor by the end of the game, especially the ones whose home gyms are 74'. One very small school has a gym that is so small they have a double mid court line. You can imagine what a shock that floor is for them.
