Longwood’s early-career sharpshooter who lived beyond the arc
In the 2014-15 season, Ryan Badowski emerged as a pure catch-and-shoot guard for Longwood, averaging 7.3 points per game while hitting 61-of-159 threes (.384), and he flashed real volume scoring upside with 21 points and seven made triples in his debut. His calling card was clear: range, confidence, and quick-trigger shot-making — the kind of guard who bends defenses even when the box score is quiet. If you want spacing and a fearless perimeter threat, he fit the bill; if you needed a downhill creator or defensive stopper, that was less his lane.
