OT: My son's team's buzzer beater

I must share this.

If anyone saw last night's SportsCenter's Top Ten, you would have seen a high school team's buzzer beater for the Eastern Maine Class A Championship: Lawrence (Fairfield) vs. Hampden Academy. My son is the senior manager for Hampden.

NEW VIDEO SITUATION: Fewer than 10 seconds left, score 37-37, Lawrence (blue) driving to the far basket (the foul occurs with 4.7 to go):



More info: Hampden Academy was 20-0 going into this game, and beating their opponents by an average margin of 27 points. Lawrence played a brilliantly crafted game in which they put Hampden completely out of sync. Prior to this shot, Hampden's previous lead was early in the second quarter, 9-8. The rebound-to-shooter connection seen here is a brother-to-brother pair, junior to freshman.
