Michigan High School Runs Carbon Copy of the Duke Grant Hill-Christian Laettner Play and Incredibly, It Works
By Jason McIntyre
Trailing by two points with 1.5 seconds left in a Regional Semifinal, Hudsonville High School (Michigan) decided to draw up the ol’ Grant Hill-to-Christian Laettner play in attempt to send the game to overtime. (Disregard the score in the video; it wasn’t tied.)
Brent Hibbitts played the role of Grant Hill, throwing a looping 75-foot pass that was virtually on-point to Cody Stuive, who was Christian Laettner. Stuive initially dropped the pass, but quickly recovered it to toss in a lefty hook as the buzzer sounded to send the game into overtime.
Hudsonville prevailed, 64-60, and will play for the Regional title tonight. [via Fox 17]
