Player nets winning basket with just two seconds left

London, Wed, 18 Jan 2012 ANI

London, Jan 18 (ANI): A basketball player made the shot of a lifetime, as he scored just seconds before the buzzer went off, to clinch a stunning victory.

 

Chase Spreen hurled the ball the whole length of the court without which his team would have lost the match.

 

His team Kentucky's Lindsey College were down 76-78, but his three points resulted in the unlikely win against Georgetown College.

 

As the ball went in, the arena erupted and fans rushed over to Chase, surrounding him and eventually lifting him on to their shoulders.

 

The game's announcer was beside himself with excitement shouting, "Holy cow" and "Oh my gosh".

 

"He hit it from the free throw line on the other side!" the Sun quoted the announcer as saying.

 

"Unbelievable! It's the most unbelievable shot I've ever seen in my life!

 

After the game, Spreen commented about his shot in an interview.

 

"We had just two seconds so there was really just one thing to do and that was to just heave it," Spreen said

 

The Mid-South Conference named the college senior their Men's Basketball Player of the Week on Monday and the shot was also featured on ESPN SportsCenter's top ten countdown of daily plays at number two. (ANI)
