The Second Extra Day

Well a second extra day and a really great one. We all went to see Missouri State play Illinois State at the new arena at Missouri State. A very exciting game. Illinois State was 11-0 coming into this game. We all felt like it would be a blow out but it wasn't at all. With 1.6 seconds left in regulation Missouri State in bounded the ball. They were down by 3 points. It was passed in. There was a little scuffle over who would control the ball. A Missouri State played finally got it and launched it from three point range. It went in as the buzzer sounded. Fantastic!!

Unfortunately in overtime things did not go Missouri States way. But they did not go quietly. They ended up loosing 72-69. But they had the final shot and it bounced off the rim. Just a great game.
