STATESBORO, Ga. – Georgia Southern's Mike Hughes' rare four-point play that lifted the Eagles to a 101-100 win over Appalachian State last night in the Holmes Center is making the rounds on the Internet and Twitosphere today.
With the Eagles trailing by three points, Hughes was fouled taking a 35-foot 3-pointer that found the bottom of the net with 0.8 seconds left. After a delay to review the play and determine how much time was left followed by an Appalachian State timeout, the sophomore guard swished the free throw to give the Eagles the win.
