What a surreal environment and setup at the end of the game today. Not sure if they mentioned this on tv, 500 people from Southington and/or friends and family of Matt Garry were in attendance.
Everything was storybook in its unfolding, Huge chants of Garry starting at the 10 minute mark, Hurley finally inserts him with a few minutes left. Kid makes two assertive moves to the hole, fouled twice and missed ALL four free throw attempts. His stroke looked good, must have just been so nervous.
Hope he gets another shot but with conference play starting soon this was his golden opportunity. In any event, seated close to the court, this was one of the cooler thngs I’ve witnessed, and felt like a movie. Great to be a part of, glad the kid got his brief moment in the sun.
