Ten trees will be planted for every three-point basket made by the Musketeers during the 2016-17 men's basketball season. In 2014-15, the first year of the partnership, 234 three point baskets were made resulting in 2,340 trees planted across the United States through funds donated by Formica Corporation in commitment to sustainability. Last year during the 2015-16 season, 255 three point baskets were made, which resulted in 2,550 trees being planted across the United States.

I hope this doesn't cause our players to jack up bad shots just to "save the environment."

In years past, there would have been more donations for opposing teams' 3s.

I thought this was going to be some kind of program where 3 year olds were given weed.

This is fine too, I guess.
