Greensboro College's Pernell Davis (Boynton Beach/Boynton Beach High School) was featured on D3hoops.com's buzzer beater watch for his recent game-tying three-pointer against Ferrum. However, The Pride men and women have had a number of clock-beaters this year.

Listed below are a few of the buzzer-beaters near game's end. Additionally, the GC men have a knack for making numerous halftime buzzer-beaters. Freshman John Auslander (Herndon/Herndon High School) has had two halftime clock-busters and RJ Smith (Charleston, SC/Porter Gaud School) has a three-pointer from the corner in addition to the shot that beat Piedmont College. Watch Smith take the inbound pass with the game tied at 59 on November 29 at Hanes Gym.

On the women's side, GC's Nikki Wilborn (Graham NC/Graham) had a game-winning trey that beat Bridgewater, 61-59, and gave Randy Tuggle his first collegiate win on Nov. 21 at Randolph-Macon. The Pride trails by two points prior to her shot. See that play below.

On Jan. 13, Davis made an off-balance three-pointer that had to be confirmed by video review. Officials ruled the shot good. The three officials reviewed the shot numerous times on The Pride’s vdeo equipment and confirmed the shot. See Pernell Davis hit his trey, and the ensuing review, below.
