Div.III player hits a 90-foot shot

[SFG75]

For Snipes, the improbable, 90-foot shot for the 91-89 victory over Randolph-Macon on Monday is a memory the former high school quarterback doesn't expect to top.

"I think that'll be my highlight," the sophomore said Tuesday afternoon after the game. "I thought if I went to sleep that it was just going to turn into a dream and when I woke up it'd be over."

Snipes was hoping to grab the rebound and lean quickly against a Yellow Jackets player hoping to draw a "cheap foul," he said. But then he heard the Randolph-Macon coaches tell their players to back away from the line.

"When they did that, I couldn't get near anybody in six-tenths of a second, so I just took the ball and threw it," he said. "I didn't know what else to do."

Wow-even if it was Div.III ball. :0 :0 :0 :0

The funny thing? Opposing players are within arms length of the guy and they're just watching him. I bet the coach is talking to them about that.
