Yes, it's all about me. My shining moment in front of hundreds of faculty and student fans. I had a few missed shots early on in the game, had one blocked, and missed one because I was mightly fouled as I went up. But, it was the 4th quarter and we faculty were just starting to erase a dozen-point deficit. Undeterred, I set up in the corner, stepped back behind the 3-point line and, taking a single dribble, calmly nailed a trey. The crowd leapt to their feet!
Well, look, this is how I remember it. If you click on the picture above, Zohra was kind enough to supply video proof of my shot.
Kudos to Parisa and Golshan and the many other student volunteers who helped make the Faculty-Student Haiti Relief basketball game a success. There were also a large number of faculty who played, cheered, and watched the action. Whether you bought a cupcake or just cheered in the stands, having such a big crowd was very exciting. Plus, you got to see me in shorts.

Thank you, Gus, for sacrificing yourself out on the court and in danger of mighty fouls. We couldn't have done it without you.
