STATEN ISLAND, N.Y. \u2014 You didn\u2019t think we\u2019d go an entire high school basketball season without posting a brand new \u201cHead Shots\u201d did you?<\/p>\n

Sure, it has been over three months since the highly popular series has appeared, but it\u2019s back and better than ever.<\/p>\n

Head Shots 67 features 37 more former student-athletes from Staten Island, all of which were high school basketball players.<\/p>\n

This time, there are 13 photos in all featuring schools from across the borough. Some of the players were stars while others were role players.<\/p>\n

Why\u2019d we take head shot photos? Well, if a player did something extraordinary and we didn\u2019t have a photographer at a game, we\u2019d give them props by embedding their head shot in a story.<\/p>\n

Some of these photos, of course, have never been seen by the general public.<\/p>\n

Think you might know somebody? Scroll down to see who made the grade in Head Shots 67.<\/p>\n
