Freshman Grant Sherfield attacks the basket while VCU defends during the game on Saturday, Dec. 21 inside Charles Koch Arena.
With 37 seconds left in the game, Gregg Marshall motioned for his players to get in the corners. He was making room for his freshman point guard Grant Sherfield to work.
The Shockers were in a slump. Shots weren’t falling and Virginia Commonwealth was clawing its way back into the game. After being down by as much as 16 points, the Rams had cut the lead down to 10.
Sherfield was calm. He dribbled to the left side of the court, crossed over, and drove into an open lane.
