Junior in high school, back when Alabama had areas and not regions like they do now. Playing one of our rivals in the Area Tournament, and I went off... 22 points, 15 rebounds, 9 assists, and 5 blocks. I'm 5'9" lol. Best game I have ever had. Think I even had a couple of steals.

Lets see,

Basketball- I made the game winning free throws when I was like 10 years old in a normal game. The kids lifted me up above their heads and it was awesome.

Baseball - USSSA baseball state tournament in Maumelle,AR. We were down by 2 in the last inning and I hit a walk off grand slam that shattered a mustangs front window to send us to the championship game which we went on to win.

Best moment: Turned an unassisted triple play in 2nd grade

Luckiest: Not too sure

Worst: Missed an open net in a hockey playoff game.

I had an unassisted triple play when I was 13. Was playing shortstop with runners on 1st and 2nd. They attempted a hit & run and the batter hit a line drive up the middle. I was already heading towards 2nd to cover the stolen base attempt when I saw the ball coming towards me. Caught the ball in stride, stepped on 2nd to get the runner on 2nd out(he was almost to 3rd base), then tagged the guy coming from 1st base out as he tried to turn and head back to 1st. It all happened so fast, and the ball was hit so hard, neither runner really had time to stop and get back to base before I had caught it.

We still lost the game as they had their ace pitcher on the mound that nearly no-hit us.

Football: Caught the game-sealing TD with about 6 seconds left on a slant route. Got drilled but hung on to the ball. Senior Year in HS

Baseball: Grand Slam Junior year in High School off our rival team at their place. 'Twas awesome..


Worst?

Lost the baseball in the sun during a HS game in the outfield with runners on 2nd and 3rd...I was literally standing there looking dumb as shite and the ball lands like 3 ft away from me, run scores. It was bad

I listed to the entire season in 1990 on a little radio as a 9/10 year old of the Atlanta Braves. I never missed a game. It was statically and I was obsessed with the Braves and I would lay beside my little radio and listen to every game. That year we came back from worst to first and the game where sid Bream slid under the tag on a throw from Barry Bonds I was listening and I cried. I have never felt such emotion from a game since. I don't take sports as seriously now but that was the highlight for me and my childhood. 1995 World Series win was nice but it will never compare to the time when I could only listen on my little radio.

Kind of a tie for me. Back in the day a bigger me was a NG for my HS team and we ran a 3-4/5-2 kind of thing so the nose really kind of existed to eat space and let those "pretty little LBers", as my coach would say, come in for all the glory. I wasn't great by any stretch but I did my job and never really had many awesome statistical games except for 2, both my Jr year.

In one playoff game I graded I wanna say in the 90s for blocking on offense and also played about every snap on defense. The center on me weighed like 210 wet and was terrible and unlike most teams they used their guards to help their tackles so I was double teamed far less for the first 3 quarters and I ended up getting 7-8 TFL in the first 3 quarters. Also was one of my best games at pass rush and in the 3rd I helped seal it by recovering a fumble.

Twas a good night because we played about 3 hours from our home and my dumb arse forgot my cleats. My strength coach went out to buy some because all of our scrubs had small, hobbit feet and I wore 14s and while my OL/DL coaches cussed me out my S&C coach comes up with the only pair of cleats he could find which happened to be Mike Vick's cleat brand. Our team all wore black cleats so I stood out like a sore thumb but after that game the staff said I had to wear those cleats the rest of the season as a goo luck charm. Went on to make 3rd round of playoffs as a 3 seed until a bunch of douchers ruined everything.

My other moment was earlier in the season in our 3rd loss in a row where an inner city team upset our school. Kind on the level of like Wake Forest over Clemson. Team had like 10 fumbles and we lost 7 but I still had one of my best games every. Recovered a fumble, 10+ tackles but the real highlight was I got my first and only INT. We have the paper still as it read "and DL DGD intercepted the ball and rumbled for 8 yards." Half the crowd was laughing before they even cheered

Best Moment: My freshman year was the last year our crosstown rival was in our district(first time in history, we were separated), so now we start the season off playing each other. My senior year, my first at bat(first pitch), I hit a three run bomb(our field was 400+ all around). I was 3-3 going into the bottom of the 7th. We were down by one, two outs, both runners in scoring position, and I hit a game-winning gapper. Only time we beat them while I was in school.
