St. Peter, Minnesota. A small town not far from Minneapolis, where the "dontcha knows" flow like wine and high school basketball games are apparently as long as winter.
Waseca High School and Marshall High School were battling in the state's Section 2AAA boys basketball championship, where the winner advances to the state championship.
This game really started at the end, with five seconds left in the fourth quarter, and Marshall down by three...
"Oh God, I really hate overtimes, so I hope that didn't keep happening in this game."
Well, get ready for the worst day of your life.
After a pair of free throws sent the game into a second overtime, and a pivotal steal brought the game into overtime No. 3, surely, SURELY the game would wind down, right? I mean, three overtimes, these kids gotta be gassed.
Down by three, Waseca players are like, "NOPE, WE LOVE OVERTIMES, LET'S DO ANOTHER!" And this is the crazy, full court shot that did it...
And then, finally, tied at 100, with only seconds left, Waseca had had enough of this game...
The Waseca Marching Jays are headed to the state tournament, but congratulations to both teams on what may be the craziest high school game that has ever been played.
