The game isn’t over until the final buzzer rips through the shrieking fans. Then the noise

stops. Momentarily suspended. Until your feet hit the court again. Like a slam dunk, you

realize that you’re not here to shoot hoops. You’re here to shoot for the moon. And usher

in a new era of Tommie Basketball. Right now, you’re standing on the edge of greatness.

The adrenaline rush you feel – when you dare to be great – is so worth the effort.
