NCTV Interviews Owl Players and Coach about Buzzer-Beater Shot

February 28, 2017

A buzzer-beating shot by Jaylon Shepperson off a long pass by Carson Hackett propelled the Owls to a 60-58 win over DeKalb County Monday night, February 13, in the 8-AA District Tournament at Tennessee Tech.

The Owls would fall short of victory Wednesday night against Livingston, but not before that game-winning shot from Monday night could go viral.

Local news stations in Nashville showed footage of the incredible play during their sportscasts.

The play even caught the eye of ESPN’s Sports Center.

The SportsCenter Instagram account shared video of the shot, which has accumulated over one million views in less than 24 hours.

NCTV recently interviewed Coach John Sanders, Jaylon Shepperson, Carson Hackett, and the radio announcer, Terry Collins about the amazing shot and national attention. Watch below:
