Miracle Full Court 3pt Shot to Win the Game

Well, you probably have already heard or seen footage of the game winning basket made by Jordan Snipes, a basketball player for Guilford College in Greensboro, NC. This basket not only won the game for his team, but it sent them into the playoffs over a team they hadn't beat in 10 years.

According to an interview with Jordan Snipes, the actual plan wasn't to heave the ball. The score was tied with a few seconds left and the other team on the free throw line. They were assuming that the free throw would go in and that they'd be down 90-89, but the shot misses. They plan they had wasn't taking into consideration what they'd do if they missed so he got a little frazzled and the only thing he could think to do with the ball was to grab it and hurl it full court down to the basket.

Here's the footage of that shot (Windows Media Player):
