Hope Hodges is on a roll.
Hodges, 11, competed in the Palm Coast Elks Hoop Shoot Dec. 10, where she won her age division.
The Elks National Hoop Shoot Free Throw Contest is open to boys and girls, ages 8 to 13. Contestants try to make as many free throws out of 25 as they can, while their competitors watch.
Hodges moved on to the next phase, which took place Jan. 7, in Stanford. Hodges won there, too.
Next up was the regional competition. It was no match. Hodges won the regional round, which took place Jan. 14, in Lake Placid.
Now, Hodges, a student at Belle Terre Elementary School, will compete in the state competition Feb. 18, in Umatilla.
For Hodges to win the overall title, she must complete three more phases.
