Utah High School Basketball Buzzer Beater Forces Overtime [Video]
Utah high school basketball doesn’t often get as crazy as it did Friday night when Olympus visited Herriman. Trailing 39-36 with just a few seconds remaining, Alec Johnson hit this running buzzer-beater to force overtime on Senior Night. For a moment, it was magical. Then Olympus won 49-45 in overtime and everyone was sad again.
In case you were away from the computer shoveling snow all weekend, there were a few buzzer-beaters in college basketball, too. Ben Brust of Wisconsin hit the best one. Scott Wood of North Carolina State beat the buzzer, and Clemson. Russ Smith of Louisville couldn’t beat the buzzer in any overtime, and the Cardinals lost.

great shot, i won’t hammer the young announcer.
would have preferred to hear just the crowd

How long until the toradol post demonizing the Red Sox?

Which BTW… I don’t know how many clubs do it, but if they really gave all pitchers toradol before their starts… wow.
Of course it wouldn’t have had an effect on Papelbon, he got it before the game and it only lasts 4 hours.

The Internet has watered down these kinds of shots. I remember being a part of some pretty crazy baseball games in high school, and I remember attending some pretty crazy basketball games, but get on youtube and this stuff is a daily occurrence somewhere.

It’s February; why talk baseball?

Why talk about a dying sport at all?

Sucks what happened to Brentz. Area kid who shot himself in the leg. Wonder if he had a chance at making it with the big boys.

I’m still not buying the ‘gun cleaning’ thing. Journalists have to. Not me.
I think he was going to be a 4th OF for the Sox. Trot Nixon ceiling if his approach improved. Maybe knock Nava off the roster in a couple years. Still has that chance.

Not a dunk.

Oh, a Big Ten game.
