I would guess that there are a between one million and two million basketball games (boys' and girls'; jr. H.S. and H.S.) played in Canada and the United States each school year using NFHS rules. How many end up with scores like 8-5? Not enough to worry about whether the rules need a shot clock.

I've seen one score all season in WI where the losing team was in single digits. And it had NOTHING to do with lack of a shot clock.
I want nothing to do with a shot clock. We have enough timer issues as it is. On a tangential note, I also want nothing to do with stopping the clock on a made basket anytime in the game. Again, we have enough timer issues as it is.
