A high school girls’ basketball player from Colorado made a ridiculous shot during a recent game, one that we didn’t even think would count.
Anna Olsen, a junior at Lewis-Palmer High School in Monument, Colo., threw in a full-court shot that made it into the basket on a bounce. The basket occurred during her team’s 30-22 win at Cheyenne Mountain High School on Friday. The shot is considered a loose ball going into the basket, so it counts for two points.
Based on the low score for the game, Lewis-Palmer was probably willing to take anything it could get. Why did Olsen attempt the shot so quickly? We have no answer for that, but the result was pretty awesome.
