Speaking of push, Hunt was deadly on the one-hand push shot at the U. of O. He used the two- handed push shot in high school and somewhat during college, but it was principally because of the one-hander that he became the first man in the Northern Division under six feet to score over 200 points in one year, "The one- hander is a quicker shot and eas ier to get away,” says Ken. For more accuracy on the free throw line, however, Hunt feels the two- hander is best for the more un coordinated ball player. "It’s more relaxing and requires less effort,” he says. Ken hopes to someday become a college basketball mentor or work on the administrative level.
