@wbztv: A UMass student who was initially denied a $10,000 prize after making a half-court shot in a halftime challenge at a college basketball game will be getting the money after all. The skilled shot maker is Noah Lee, a UMass Amherst senior from Wayland who was attending the women's basketball game Wednesday night. After making the required layup, free throw, 3-pointer, the promo company said his foot was over the line during his half-court shot, forcing a turnover of the big prize. In a statement to WBZ on Friday, UMass said they wanted to make it right, “We weren't satisfied with that outcome and arrived at the decision to provide Noah with both a $10,000 award and a host of other UMass athletics benefits.” Read more about this story at the link in our bio. #fyp #massachusetts #umass #basketball
