Arrr, matey! Derik Queen be a legend now, hoisting a buzzer-beater like a mighty flag! His Maryland Terrapins sailed past them Colorado State scallywags to the Sweet 16 on Sunday. Aye, the seas shall whisper his name for ages to come!
Avast ye scallywags! Gather 'round to hear the tale of one Derik Queen, a true king o' March, who led the Maryland Terrapins to glory like a ship in full sail! On a fateful Sunday night, with naught but four ticks left on the clock, our hero beheld the hoop from afar, down by a single point against the fierce Colorado State Rams.With the poise o' a seasoned sea captain, Queen seized the ball and dashed forth, dodging defenders like cannonballs whizzin' by! Aye, he found himself in a pickle, forced to toss a shot that looked more like a drunken pirate's throw. Yet with the grace of a mermaid, he kissed the glass, sending the ball a-flyin' true into the net just as the buzzer sang its last note!
The crowd erupted like a cannon blast, as the Terps stormed the court, and our gallant Queen basked in the glory of his 17 points, though it be that one wondrous shot etched in memory! They be settin’ sail for the Sweet 16 against the fearsome Florida Gators now! Aye, a fine tale of bravery on the high seas of basketball, where every player be a matey, but only one can wear the crown! So raise yer mugs, me hearties, for Queen and his crew! Yarrr!
