High school team wins on buzzer-beater from the knees (Video)
Rush-Henrietta (NY) Senior High School defeated Greece Athena (NY) High School on one of the crazier shots you will see.
According to YNN Rochester Sports, the teams were playing in the RAP Tournament at East High School and tied at 54 Saturday when Rush-Henrietta’s Bay Barley made an improbable buzzer-beater from his knees to win the game.
Barley rebounded a miss, brought the ball up court, slipped and did a twist on the ground — all while maintaining his dribble — and launched a half-court shot from his knees to win the game 57-54.
“I know that the clock was running down, so I wanted to be the one with the ball and as I fell I knew to keep my dribble so I could get back up, and I got back up I was ready to shoot the ball. I shot it and I was just praying that it would go in,” said Barley, according to YNN Rochester.
Barley’s impressive buzzer-beater wasn’t as good as this one from a Maryland high school player, but the difference is his gave his team the win. What a shot.
