NORTH AUGUSTA, S.C. - We may never know what really happened in the YOMCA's final huddle Friday afternoon at the Riverview Park Activities Center.
Trailing New Orleans' Hornets guard Chris Paul's CP3 All-Stars by one point in the championship game of Nike's 16-and-under Sweet 16 national tournament, the YOMCA needed a miracle bucket with just five-tenths of a second left on the clock.

Though slavery had been abolished, second class citizenship was rampant throughout the nation for African-Americans. In the Confederate South, segregation and the dampening of voting rights for African-Americans had become the rallying cry for racist-white cultural preservation.
