03/24/2007) ATLANTA, Ga. – Stephen Sir of Northern Arizona and All-American Acie Law of Texas A&M headline the talented field in the Midas Touch Men’s 3-Point Shooting Championship to be contested Thursday. Rounding out the field are Aaron Brooks (Oregon), Colin Falls (Notre Dame), Adam Haluska (Iowa), Jarrius Jackson (Texas Tech), Demetris Nichols (Syracuse) and Kammron Taylor (Wisconsin).
“It feels good to be in a field where I am the only mid-major guy,” said Sir, who ranks first in the nation in 3-point field goals made per game (4.1) and third in 3-point field goal percentage (.490). “I am anxious to go against the guys from the big programs that I see play on television every weekend.”
Sir, who hails from Edmonton, Alberta, was a 2007 All-Big Sky Conference Second Team selection. He helped his team to two Big Sky Conference regular season titles and two Big Sky Tournament Championship game appearances over the last two seasons. Overall, he made 323 career three pointers and finished his career second on the all-time NCAA three-point percentage list (46.9) and tops among all players with 300 or more made three-pointers.
