What a night! With 8 minutes left in the game, Snow was down 15 points! Salt Lake is ranked 6th in the country! Snow began making their comeback. But even with only 5 minutes left in the game, they were still down by 8 points. By the time there was only 50 seconds left in the game, the score was 61-62. They were only down by one point! Snow's defense was flawless! Salt Lake couldn't do anything with the ball.
Okay...here's where it gets REALLY exciting. There is only 3 seconds left in the game and Salt Lake is shooting 2 free throws. They make both of them. So the score is now 64-66. ONLY 3 SECONDS LEFT! Just then, Ryan Brimley (That's him in the picture with head coach, Mike Ostlund) from our team is given the ball. He shoots it from 3/4 court (which is the free throw line on the oppositite side of our basket) and....HE MAKES IT!
We WIN!!! The final score is 67-66! The crowd went nuts! The players and coaches were all in tears. Watch the video clip from ABC's news last night. (it's at the top of this post)
