Indeed. I caught bits and pieces of the game, including the final seconds. I did not know that Barton (located in North Carolina with an enrollment of just under 1,200) was a Disciples school. (But now I know, and knowing is half the battle.)
Anyway, the final play was spectacular, but the drama really begins with 45 seconds remaining and Division II power Winona St. up by 7. Winona St., of Minnesota, was defending their 2006 D-II championship and a 57-game winning streak. Check it out at Deadspin, or watch this grainy version from You Tube (sorry, Viacom):
