Senior year of HS I had a rushing TD, receiving TD, and INT in the same game. Coach gave me a chance at the trifecta with an end around pass from the slot, but the tight end dropped the ball in the endzone.

To start off, I'm a 5'9" white male.

I was the only white kid in this 16 and under AAU basketball tournament in New Orleans. Well, a pass had gotten stolen and the opposing team went on a fast break. I was the first person back and knew there was no way I was blocking the shot attempt, so I stood my ground to take the charge. This giant kid is coming full speed at me, right before contact I close my eyes because I know this is going to hurt. I hear a thunderous dunk and the crowd goes wild. I had assumed he did some fancy move and went around me. I found out after the game from my dad that the guy had pulled a Vince Carter and jumped clean over me. Fun times.

Turns out that kid was Tyrus Thomas.

I have two that really stand out.

At my first high school meet as a sophomore in track I was running the 400. As i went to the clerk of course a bunch of other older runners were shite talking because I was small and white. One dude was saying how I must have been put in the wrong heat, and that I should scratch. I ran a season opening '48 and just smoked the field. Best part was later in the season the dude talking the most was in my heat at regionals, and I got to prevent him from qualifying for state.

Second was in swimming. I was anchoring a 400 freestyle relay at the district championship. The 400 free relay is the last event of the day. I wasn't very good at freestyle, and I don't remember how I ended up in that relay as I normally only swam the medley.

When I dove in we were in third, and I really did not expect to hold off two of the teams behind us because they had really fast anchors. I ended up pulling us into second, and the second place finish was enough to put us in 1st place for the team championship.
