Shot clocks

[Adam]

The only ones I know of are CA, WA, and NY.

There are only about eight overall which employ the shot clock.

You can add MA, MD (girls), and one of the Dakotas (I can't recall which).

I can tell you for sure that NV does not use it.

NY 30 second for girls, 35 for boys at the varsity and JV level. NY we also use NCAA rules for girls games with some modifications and NFHS Rules for boys.

High School Sports | Shot clock approved for boys high-school basketball | Seattle Times Newspaper

According to this article from Apr 2009:

7 states use it for boys
8 states use it for girls


Btw, no shot clock in Ohio either.

Forgot to mention. In NY 3 person crews are not mandated and not the norm. some places use them for high profile games. I don't think with school budgets in the shape they are in we will ever see 3 person mandated. How about the rest of the country.

Not in Indiana and we were told not to expect it anytime soon.

Please either start a new thread for this inquiry or better yet do a search of our past threads on this rather than mess up this one with such a question and the responses.

I sometimes wish Texas would use a shot clock. I would love for some teams to take 35 seconds to shoot instead of 7 or 8 seconds.

Just a little extra on NY - I don't know about the rest of the state but in NYC there's a 35-second clock in Class AA boys' games only and a 30-second clock in all girls' games (AA, A and B). NYS has Class C & D schools as well but not in NYC.

Meanwhile across the Hudson in NJ, no shot clocks at all.

To bring it up again North Dakota uses it in both classes(Class B added it this year) :35 for boys and :30 for girls while South Dakota uses it in Class A only(biggest class)

None in Maine but wish we had them. But then I don't think we would have competent people to run them at the High school level. It's hard enough to have them used correctly at the college level.

I wonder why the difference in times between boys and girls?
