Hoop stars among the preppies? Don't snicker.

Giedrius Rinkevicius, a 7­foot­2 center, came to Maine to attend Bridgton Academy from basketball­mad Lithuania ­­ and next year will have a basketball scholarship at the University of Missouri, one of the best college teams in the country. Then there's Rashad McCants, a slam­dunking guard who made six out of six three­point shots and scored 25 points altogether in New Hampton School's 91­65 drubbing of Exeter in an intra­New Hampshire battle this past season.
