High School to win its district tournament last year right at the end of the season, when this team's opponents were familiar with its attack. Something new had to be sprung. It was. 4 They now call it the “broad high- way" offense. It was based solely on the skill of Logansport’s right guard to feint and dribble. He is No. 5 in the diagram. Taking a re- bound from the backboard, 5 feinted his opponent off balance and then dribbled around him while his four teammates dashed to opposite sides of the court, mainly to keep their opponents away from the middle area. Down this middle area No. 5 dribbled straight for the basket. In a jifly he caged his shot. There Wefe other Variations to the play For example, if one of the oppo- nents of No. 5's four teammates left his side of the court to break up this dribble, 5 merely passed to the teammate thus uncovered. Where- upon that teammate dribbled to the basket for a close-up shot. (Copyright, 1982.) amini | nearby sections about the st on the Maryland “open ship.
