Buzzer Beater

There aren't many highlights to Elliott's basketball season this year, but he had an exciting game the other night. They were down by 9 with 1:33 to go in the game. Elliott started grabbing the ball and tying it up so they got it back on the alternating possessions. Then he hit a long jumper and had a beautiful assist to a kid for an easy lay-up. Next thing I knew, his team was up by 1 with 4 seconds to go. The other team in-bounds the ball to the far side of the court. The kid takes a running shot which misses. Elliott pulls down the rebound and covers up the ball and just holds on for the win! Pretty exciting. He was supposed to have the first playoff game today but it was postponed due to 20 inches of snow... (so far!).
