Mount Fan Blog: Harrisburg/Steel High Thriller

Harrisburg/Steel High Thriller

Saw this on the nightly news and thought it was worth posting here. Harrisburg just missed winning the game in regulation when a tip-in was just after the buzzer. The score is tied at 75, after that great Cougar rally when Steel-High in Blue attempts the three from the corner. That leads to this.....
Crazy Finish

What you missed was the two free throws from Harrisburg because of the technical on the dunk that tied the game. The final inbounds came with 0.5 seconds left.

About theMountFanBlog

The Mount FanBlog is hosted by Ryan Raffensperger, a sports fan of all types and a Mount Basketball fan forever.

Raffensperger has loved the Mount as long as he can remember, which basically means 1981 - and remembers the true #GloryDays of Memorial Gym. He remembers the players from those days to the athletes who play at Knott Arena today. And if it's a #MountMayhem day, it's going to be a good day.

He holds a Syracuse University degree in broadcast journalism. He has broadcast high school, college & minor league levels of all sports in his past and regularly covered high school football for his hometown paper. So the blog does make a little sense.

Raffensperger worked professionally as a CPA for many years, but the chronic inflammatory immune disease Sarcoidosis made it impossible to continue that in a manner he found acceptable. Since then, he has spent more time around the Mount St. Mary's basketball program and values Coach Dan Englestad, his staff, and the players' impact on him. The blog was much more active, but the advent of Twitter (follow @themountfanblog) has made writing a little less important. But he hopes that the balance swings back in favor of more traditional content soon.
