One word can describe senior Kyle Berndt’s play style — shooter. 

The 6-foot-5 wing for Central Bucks East has hooped since kindergarten, but when Stephen Curry exploded onto the scene and revolutionized the 3-point shot a decade ago, Berndt, who was in elementary school at the time, got inspired. 

“He’s been one of my favorite players forever,” he said. “Everyone is going to say Steph Curry, when you think of a shooter. He’s the greatest to ever do it.”

He wanted to perfect the art of shooting and got to work. Berndt still shoots with his father and younger sister Natalie in the driveway or at any gym they can find, constantly working on his jump shot.
