Jason McElwain, The Most Touching Sports Story…EVER!
Jason McElwain is a 17 year old guy who attends high school in Greece New York. Jason
is a key player on the basketball team, but had never actually got any playing time. Instead
he spent his time keeping the stats, running the clock, and handing out water bottles.
Jason’s Autism kept him sidelined throughout the year, but those on the team still consider
him a member……even though he didn’t actually play.
Well, the other day, during the last game of the season, Jason got his chance. With just 4
minutes left in the game, the coach decided to put Jason in the game. The crowd went nuts…
I mean, they were freaking out. Most of the people in the audience had pictures of Jason on
a stick and they waived them back and forth like madness.
However, what happened next was absolutely mind boggling. In fact, I think it’s the best
sports moment in all of history. It was even more impressive then the Miracle on Ice
hockey game when the USA beat the unbeatable Russian Team.
Jason’s first shot bricked hard. It was a total air ball. But Jason didn’t give up. His next
shot, well, it bombed too. But what happened next was insane.
Bam, Jason nails a 3 pointer. Almost every person in the building jumped 3 feet high in
excitement. The gymnasium was going NUTS. I’ve never seen anything like it. But it
was far from over. Jason nailed another shot from downtown…..and then another, and
another, and another.
When it was all said and done, Jason had scored 20 points in just 4 minutes. At that pace,
the dude could of beat Wilt’s 100 point game. The crowd was freaking out, and rightfully
so. To be honest, seeing the news story made me cry. It was that moving. Then I saw the
story again on another channel. Again, I wept a tear of enjoyment for the guy.
Seeing how elated the crowd got was something else. I wish i could of been there. It truly
was the best sports moment I’ve ever seen, and I’m a sports nut.
As Jason said, he was “HOTTER THEN A PISTOL”.
