3 point shot at the buzzer

This year our girls 7th grade basketball team is awesome! They have won every game so far. the poor, poor, poor hardworking boys team just can't catch a break. I have been to all of the home games (with the cheerleaders) and a few away games, as an extra hand to help the coaches with the kids and fans. The kids love us to be there and yesterday it was another teachers turn to go to the away game. The boys team was upset that I was not going , it was cute =) So I told them if they won I would buy them all pizza for lunch on Monday. Knowing full well that winning would most likely not happen I told them if they only lost by 8 I would make them brownies.

This morning they run up the stairs screaming MRS JACKSON YOU OWE US BROWNIES!!!!!

So, ok they lost by 8, exactly 8. Miles scored a 3 point shot at the buzzer to get them to where they needed to be. Not only that, but after he scored the whole team stood up screaming BROWNIES and ran onto the court to high five Miles for getting them brownies.

I hear the coach is not too happy they were acting so excited for losing, oh well it is the best game they have played so far. I hope that I will have to buy them pizza before this season is over!
