Jason McElwain's Big Game

                        

Normally, when I log on and the Welcome Screen pops up....the first thing I do is click it off.

Not this time.

Check out this article:  AOL News - Autistic Team Manager Makes Hoop Dream Come True

Quite a remarkable tale, which hits a bit to home since my wife has a cousin who is autistic so I am just amazed at this. 

McElwain is a member of the Greece Athena High School basketball team....but never played.  He usually just sat on the bench as the team manager [handing out water bottles, keeping stats]....which is cool with him since this is the sport he loves.

With Greece Athena holding a blowout lead with four minutes to play in the final home game of the year.....McElwain comes in and nails SIX 3-pt shots and dumps 20 points in an amazing display of shooting.   After the game, he was carried off the court and cheered for his feat.

So, to NBA stat nuts, he has a 240 ppg average per 48 minutes.   

Please, if you have a little time.....read that story.
