NCAA may push back the three-point line

By
INDIANAPOLIS - An NCAA rules committee is recommending that the three-point line in men&#39;s college basketball be moved back nine inches to 20 feet, six inches. It&#39;s been at 19 feet, nine inches since 1986. <br> <br> The panel also suggests changing the 12-foot-wide lane to the trapezoid used in international play. That trapezoid is over 19 and a-half feet at its widest point. <br> <br> The NCAA championship committee meets next month to consider the suggestions. <br> <br> The NCAA women&#39;s basketball rules committee is recommending that the international three-point line be used, too, and that the trapezoid lane be tried experimentally in selected games during the season.
