Everyone in the gym knew the ball was going to Will Rayman.
It wasn’t a play call Millbrook coach William Thom had to think about — he had Rayman, the New England Preparatory Athletic Player of the Year. Down three in a playoff game against the top-seeded Canterbury (CT) High School, Thom called a play to get Rayman a 3-pointer in the far-left corner.
Right behind a wide-open Rayman, the student section watched the ball go in and out, taking Millbrook’s season with it.
Back in the locker room, Rayman told his team how proud he was of them.
