Autistic Basketball Manager Plays a Great Game

John McElwain John McElwain is a special education student with autism.  He is his high school's basketball manager and definitely shows a love for the game and for his team. 

For the last game of the season, coach Johnson let John suit up for the game, not necessarily to play, but to give him the feeling of what it feels like to wear a jersey.  At four minutes left in the game coach Johnson put John in the game.  John's first two shot attempts were airballs, but his next 7 consecutive shots are legendary.  John made six three-pointers and one two-point shot.  Incredible.

Sadly, honey bees are mysteriously vanishing in staggering numbers - a crisis known as Colony Collapse disorder - which is alarming considering honey bees are responsible for pollinating one-third of our natural food supply.
