Philip: Shawn man you earned now go out there and show them what you are made of.

The horn sounded signaling it was game time. Shawn looked up into the stands and waved at his family they had drove in from Chicago to see him play. The announcer did the starting line-up and the game started. The game was neck to neck. Shawn was having a great game he had 18 of the 46 points at half-time. They were leading 46-38 at half-time.
The team came back on the floor for the start of the second half. Shawn picked up his third foul with 10 minutes to play and had to be benched. Philip went in for him and he was not at the top of his game. Philip missed three shots and made 2 quick fouls.
Now with 5 minutes remaining the game was tied and Shawn came back in. Shawn stole the ball and scored an easy 2 points on the fast break. The next time down the the other team hit a three. The game went back in forth and it was neck and neck.
There was 20 seconds remaining in the game and IU was up by 1 point and had the ball. Jared Reiner came up behind Tom Coverdale and knocked the ball out of his hands and the ball was loose for any one to grab Jeff Newton grabbed it was knocked towards out of bounds. Shawn ran after it out of bounds and went tumbling into one of the cheerleaders.
The male cheerleader turned to see what happened and took his eyes off of the cheerleader he was suppossed to catch from the basket toss. The crowd went silent as a bone chilling scream echoed in the gym.
