Video of Gibbons' last-second shot hitting crossbar in boys lacrosse title game

Bookmark and Share

As you read in Nate Taylor's story from Friday night, Cardinal Gibbons was inches away from sending the boys lacrosse championship game into overtime against Lake Norman.

But instead, the final shot of the game hit the crossbar as time expired and Gibbons lost by one. Below is the video of that moment, as posted on YouTube by username GibbonsLacrosse. It starts with a draw with 15 seconds left - right after Gibbons had just scored to cut the deficit to one.

It's worth watching. Well, maybe not if you're a Gibbons fan.

And if you are a Gibbons fan, I posted a different video below that one of pretty sweet highlight from this year - a one-handed goal by Danny Dorsett - that was also under the GibbonsLacrosse YouTube account and deserves to be linked somewhere as well.

Gibbons Lacrosse

The videos feature #14 Danny Dorsett of 2012 Cardinal Gibbons lacrosse team. Both are amazing goals, one lucky and one not so much, but they demonstrate his willingness to shoot under pressure and his shot is smoking fast.
