Shelbyville Dragons played the #5 ranked Joaquin Rams Thursday night. With 58 seconds left Shelbyville was down by 19 points. They came back and won the game in 58 seconds by scoring 20 points in 58 secs to stun the 5th ranked Rams to win 40-39. I rarely ever post about other teams on here but this was something to behold. Also my family is from Shelbyville on both of my grandparents sides of the family on my fathers side. I also own land up here and happen to be here this weekend. Ill post a clip of the last 58 secs if you are bored, or just want to see a miracle game ending. If you are not interested then no problem and sorry I took up your time. Its just such a rare type of miracle I thought it would warrant a post. Indianfan if you need to move this please feel free. I am not sure were to put it.
