Seward's season came down to 1.7 seconds last night. In a 67-64 contest in favor of the Grizzlies, Butler purposely fouled Donte McCarter to send him to the line. McCarter had to sink the first and miss his second opportunity in hope a Saint could get a putback to go into overtime.McCarter did sink the first. McCarter's second shot banged off the front of the rim. The shot bounced straight back towards McCarter, who in the mid-air scramble came away with it. McCarter, falling backwards, threw up the shot. McCarter hit the floor and the last stitch effort fell short as Seward's season came to a close following a 67-65 loss."Breaks didn't go our way," Saints head coach Bryan Zollinger said. "It's one turnover, one shot, one foul, one call...

Seven years ago, Alex woke up impressed by his incredible fast heart rate. He didn’t tell anybody about it.
He came to the United States from Serbia on Aug. 21, 2009, to play basketball at Seward County Community College. At the beginning, the arrhythmia attacks caught him only occasionally.
