Forsyth's Ryder Blevins uses help from the crowd to win Tournament of Champions Dunk Contest

Special to the News-Leader

Forsyth’s Ryder Blevins won the Bass Pro Tournament of Champions dunk contest with a perfect score in the final round.

Blevins didn’t post a high enough score to get to the second round, but the crowd started chanting “Forsyth! Forsyth!” and that was enough to get him into the second round.

“It was awesome that everyone wanted me to be back in,” Blevins said.

Blevins didn’t disappoint. In the second round, Blevins used two people he knows pretty well as props to secure his first perfect score of the final night.
