San Quentin held a basketball shooting contest for the Martin Luther King Jr. holiday, which was won by Terrel Sterling and Keith Wroten, who tied for first place.
The contest involved markers indicating various points to be earned for made shots. Points ranged from one to six. The further away from the basket, the more a made shot was worth.
Each shooter had to rebound his own make or miss, then decide where to make his next shot attempt.
Fateem Jackson won the last event, scoring 37 points on mostly long-range shots made from about three feet behind the three-point line. However, he only scored seven in his title defense, losing to Terrell Sterling and Keith Wroten. They both tied for first place by employing a strategy of shooting from the free-throw line and making five each.
They spilt the first and second place prizes, getting 22 granola bars each.
Anthony Colman and Montrell Vines spilt third place with 13 bars each. This was Colman’s second time coming in second.
