Wow the SU women pulled a Butler/Pearl moment

[Marsh01]

Incredible ending. Holy cow.

Go on

Half court shot with 1 second left after a steal... awesome!

 

[Marsh01]

Go on

Tie game 2.6 left St Johns inbounded, Syracuse stole it and Sykes threw in a halfcourt (probably longer) shot that banked in at the buzer.

She had a second to put the ball on the floor too. I was watching it on espn3, thought she should have dribbled quickly but it worked!

Yea I had it on at my desk. Pretty wild ending. They pulled a men's team and scored the last 7 points to win it.

That shot was about five feet beyond half court. Holy shitballs. Nearly 28 years to the day after Pearls shot.

 

[MiniCuse]

Just saw the ending on ESPN. Pretty sweet.

 

[TinyManInside]

That's awesome, I'll have to check it out.

I just played in a tournament at work and my team lost in the semifinals on a last second half-court shot. The SU women's team must be thrilled, but I can say firsthand it really sucks losing that way.

Anyone have a link to the video?

 

[OrangeTown]

Damn the women! Just as I try to force my long-pass inbounding end of game logic on you in another thread, they have to go and win one in just the fashion that I dared the other team to try!

I've been foiled again!

But grats!

Great looking guitar!

thanks, it's a custom build for a customer out in AZ. The body is mahogany with a curly redwood top and an ebony binding. The neck is curly maple with an ebony pinstripe. The fretboard is maple with paua abalone and black mother of pearl inlays. I did all of the inlays. My associate did the body and most of the woodworking on the neck. Next step is finishing it.

Here's a photo build log if you want to see what went into making it so far.

[Cuseregular]

hmm, that final score with a big/special victory of 60-57 SU...wonder where I've seen that score before?...

I know that on the national scene, a top 25 matchup between boy's high school basketball teams would register more than a Syracuse-St. John's women's basketball game a 1 p.m. on a Wednesday. However, since the game was aired on ESPN3, you would think that ESPN might have at least some sort of mention of a crazy half-court buzzer beater to win the game, right? Well you would think wrong. And then you would think "why am I so stupid for thinking that ESPN knows how to cover sports?"
