A student at a UMass Minutewomen’s basketball game won $10,000 on Wednesday night after completing an on-court contest—until he didn’t.
As shared by UMass play-by-play announcer Josh Schreiber on X (formerly Twitter), a friend of his named Noah made a layup, a free throw, a three-pointer, and a halfcourt shot in under 30 seconds to receive the grand prize. Here’s a look at the video:

Following up on Thursday afternoon—however—Schreiber explained that Noah was notified by “insurance” that he would not be getting the money:
“They say his foot was on the line DESPITE not being told BEFOREHAND that it had to be BEHIND the line,” he wrote in a quote-post. “OddsOn Promotions is the company.”

Instead, UMass offered Noah the following (per Schreiber):
Not a great look for UMass Amherst to be taking away this kind of money from a college student—even if it is a promotions company that ran the contest.
