Jimmy Rosselli and Griffin Wright shed all impartiality in calling No. 12 seed High Point University’s shocking 83-82 victory over No. 5 Wisconsin in the NCAA Tournament’s first round on Thursday.
But once you watch their unfettered excitement in the frantic last minute, you’ll understand why.
Rosselli and Wright, the student-radio basketball broadcasters for the small college in North Carolina, lost their shit, to put it mildly.
“Throw on the glass slipper! It’s a Cinderella story in Portland, Oregon!” Rosselli yells in the clip below. “For the first time in program history, High Point breaks through. We’ll see you in the round of 32! Oh, what a feeling!”
The two posted a split screen of their reactions to what was happening on the court. It’s been watched more than a million times.
