Saving Stories remembers Vernon Hatton and THE Shot heard 'round BBN

For three quarters of a century the month of March in Kentucky has been tournament time with hoops fever reaching a near fever pitch. And if you're wondering why UK Basketball is sometimes considered an official religion, we submit this audio as exhibit A. In this special episode of WUKY's Saving Stories, UK Nunn Center director Dr. Doug Boyd and Deirdre Scaggs, associate dean and head of Special Collections, join Alan Lytle to re-live one of the most dramatic moments in UK Basketball history called by the legendary sports broadcaster Claude Sullivan; a thrilling triple overtime win over Temple University in Memorial Coliseum. All made possible by the recently deceased Hall of Famer Vernon Hatton who hit THE SHOT. RIP Mr. Hatton.
