Colin Cunningham, You're My Hero

I guess Colin Cunningham found his swagger. The freshman from Memphis, TN willed his team to overtime with a trey, a drawn player-control foul resulting in a change of possession, and a nifty layup, all in the final 9 seconds! Let's recap: 5 points, and a forced turnover, bringing HC from down 55-50 to tied at 55, in 9 seconds. The kid can play.

Colin didn't do it alone. In a masterful performance at the point, the warrior, Torey Thomas, played all 50 minutes and scored 23 points. Collectively, the team played inspired basketball as regulation wound down. This one had some postseason magic and atmosphere in the overtime periods and the final minutes of regulation.
