- Video made by South Tahoe High's Thunderclap Club of the Vikings vs. Wolverines game on February 7, 2020.. This is an amazing demonstration of sportsmanship, kindness and spirit of the game. Watch the beginning for a sense of spirit, then as the game goes on you'll catch the excitement of the ending. Thank you Thunderclap! Full story here - southtahoenow.c...
What never gets explained by the video is that Tasil Patel was the team's manager and had been assisting the team in a variety of ways for year, but had never played in a game. He was a senior. It was his last chance to play in a game before he graduated. It's great that he finally got in a scored, but what's better is that even the opposing team was wanting him to enter and get a chance. They even cheered for him when he finally scored after several attempts. The teams are rivals. The sportsmanship displayed is a worthy reminder that how we treat each other is just as important as who wins the game.
*assisting the team in a variety of ways for years (not year)
@@apollozed7827 Yep... none of that was explained. Makes it all the better
Appreciate the back story!
I was the manager for the JV team, never suited up, never wanted to, I was the manager, not a player, and glad I did it, those were some of the greatest guys I ever met.
Thanks for the explanation.
As a longtime AAU basketball coach, I must say that this is the best display of sportsmanship that I've seen on the court. Incredible job by the Truckee High players and it speaks volumes about the teaching these young men have received from their parents and coaches.
I officiated high school and college basketball for 28 years, and still love the sport. I’ve seen firsthand how hard players play and coaches coach, everyone wants to win. These moments are few and far between, and exceptionally gracious of the team that lost the game. Glad to see that there are still coaches and players who can exemplify sportsmanship and that the team that lost the game can lose with dignity and still win.
I know this video post is 2 years old, but sportsmanship is timeless. About 30 years ago I went to my Godson's little league game. They were way over matched and lost in the first or second inning to the 10 run rule. However, even though they lost, they still wanted to play the game. The coaches got together and agreed, since they still had the field available, "lets play two" for fun, so they did.
I love how #23 from the opposing team raised his arms in victory after he made that shot. Awesome!
Great catch. I missed it the first time.
High school sports are about so much more than wins and loses. A beautiful show of sportsmanship, something I’m sure that kid won’t soon forget.
Also #20 made the pass.
He knew it was going in soon as it came off the board.
How is it the announcers didn't point out that #20 on the opposing team is the one who passed him the ball and gets the assist?
I know this video is a couple years old, but it definitely reaffirms my faith in humanity and young people. Simply outstanding 👏
It’s great to see today’s kids help a special kid feel good and treat him like he is one of them.
I'm sobbing 😭. That will be remembered his entire life 🥰
What an excellent display of sportsmanship. Way to go boys!!!!
I love how the kid on the other team got excited when he scored.
This made me cry. Thank you.
This made me smile I haven’t smiled in so long.
Best sportsmanship ever. Love this story
I love how the Wolverine #20 was the one with the assist 🏀😂😂😂😂
#23 from the other team holding his arms up as the bucket is scored and then clapping says it all!! Great sportsmanship for both teams!
Hats off to both teams for giving this player the Moment!
I loved how some of his teammates were already psyched and jumping when he finally agreed to go in. And it was awesome that the other team gave him the assist on his basket 🤣♥️
Priceless, life is never see it one sided , is more great when u do for others to feel wanted and a winner.. 👍🙏❤️🙌
That’s the game that everyone goes home smiling from.
That was a classy move bye them boys ...brought me to tears
Great moment! ... Great announcing!
This was pleasantly funny asf😂🤣 I like the camaraderie!
Everyone routing for the same cause, despite opposite jersey colors. Cool..
#20 in orange unitorm...YOU, sir, are a gentleman !!!
I REALLY REALLY NEEDED THIS!!!!🔥🔥🔥🔥
Ok who cut the onions? That was what I needed to see today. Tasil, Tasil, Tasil!!!
4:37 The assist was by 20 red: My respect for him. The human being when he decides to be good, he is very good.
Good eye
The other team passed the ball, real class
Jesus that's a beautiful scene
This says a lot about the visiting team. Much respect!
Very classy. Kids like this will make the world a better place. I love when the kid on the other team puts his hands up when the shot goes in. Very cool.
He bet on the other team, and he should be banned for life from any other athletic competition at the school.
#20, you are my MVP for the day :) Good move.
When they go from 5 on 5 to 9 +1 with a common goal.
Amazing how kids again can teach us adults life lessons. Think about it, with todays climate. I love this video!
High school sports can be epic!
That is why sports is important in society, especially for kids.
kudos to number 20 on the red team for the assist
I saw that too. Off the rebound, he just passed it to him. THAT was sportsmanship at it's best. Thank you, Mauricio!
He was like I need 1 more assist
@@dawnwallis6732 instead it counts as a turnover lol. Best turnover ever
Mankind at its best !!!
You guys are awesome. Bless up!
Great support for Tasil! Side note: You could hear the announcers holding back their laughter, lol
😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 This is so awesome
Yeah. This got to me. Thanks for posting.
This is what High Schools sports should be about!
made me cry
The moment the other team started throwing him ball the ball that someone started cutting onions!
Not 1 single person cared about the final score
I do they got 69 hahaha
Humanity at it's finest
This video needs more explanation
Agreed
Yeah, really. What's the deal with the kid?
@@tateyambrose7290 looks like he has a leg disability of some kind but good for him anyway
@@Freespeechisgone he was just the team manager, man's isn't disabled 😂
He was probably just thinking about it too much because he knew hundreds of people were watching him
@@VinylUnboxings look at the way he runs,that is not normal sorry.
How did he get number 23? That’s a number that’s never left
😂😂😂😂😂 this comment is sooooo Underrated! Very gud point. Gotta luv this tho
he was the equipment mgr, he probably said it was taken to all 7 people who asked for it. LOL
And the crowd went wild..............
This was fantastic. The opponent even helped here.
Guy in the front row with the sweater and hat on the right wasn’t phased one bit
I sure hope #20 got hooks ups from both team cheerleaders!!! That guy is the man!
The only bad part is that the player was probably shitting his pants
Heck yeah baby!!!!! WHOOOOO
Nobody is Gunna say how he hit the 69th point for his team.
Nice
My man is gonna remember that forever. That was insanely awesome! Fucking got chills hoping he would get a bucket.
Awesome display of sportsmanship by everyone....fuck yeah!
Love it!!
His form is beyond amazing. Tassil does not take games off for load management.
THis is how civilized people act. Notice a conspicuous absence of a certain type.
Very cool.
Anyone from truckee know if Mike Merriman or Chris Drisback still teaching
All were winners in life.
Humans can be beautiful
nice to see kids be nice.....great job
Efforts from all directions made this special.
Including you.
Beautiful ❤❤❤
3:51, turnover, stepped in bounced with the ball, back out of bounds then threw it in, the coach should have benched him for that and not let him go back in! Just, I'm kidding
I’m crying at 9:30 am. I’m a 23yo man. Hell yeah Tassel
😂😂😂😂😂
And theres showing heart
Dam I lost alot of money on this game because if that shot
Yeah it doesn’t seem right. Half the Wolverines players obviously bet on the Vikings. They ought to have to forfeit all their games next season.
saw this on SVPs "Bad Beats". Really seemed like collusion.
Lol their highlights being called Thunderclaps is ELITE
cool
Thats what its all about
1975. Our 60th man on the HS football team would not go into the game. I lost respect for him. 1975
#13 on white will be bald by Christmas break.
Poor kid 😂
GOD is good!
Wow. 🥲👏🏼
This moment brought to you by the Holy Spirit.
Truckee has one minority player. They must be dominating in their division lmao
2:27.... #goosebumps
Damn onions
He could have had a triple “single”. He had 1 assist right away, then he could have had a defensive rebound but decided to just let ball roll out of bounds to get possession. Then of course, he scored. Too bad. 😂😂😂
"Asshole" is the kids name.
His last name is Patel, he's going to be the greatest liquor store owner, Motel 6 worker, or Taxi Cab driver you've ever seen,
Or he'll probably end up being the IT guy.
PLEASE prove me wrong.
I love it! But was this a JV game? The basketball on show wasn''t too impressive .
No, it was a varsity game.
Yeaahh let’s give trophies 🏆 to everyone. That’s very progressive
What trophy did the team in red get? If you think everyone being happy is a bad thing, I feel really sad for you.
@@SarahDigsHockey Let me guess you vote for Biden
Thats the kind of team you beg to play for.... selfless cheerleaders
This is a funny looking diaplay of Capitalism.
Why is he playing if he doesn’t want to get in the game and is that bad at basketball
Onions....I hate em!
i feel sorry for the kid(#13) thats damn near bald already.@7.27
I don’t get this. It seems they are making fun of the kid.
Obviously you don't get it. They're not making fun of him.
This kid is awful
I think its implied he has special needs and they just wanted to give him a cool moment to feel good.
Go wolverines
I know this comment will get hate, but can we just recognize that every other player on the court is trash, lol. This is varsity high school hoops? Embarrassing! 😂😂😂
I think you missed the point of the video pal.
@@shawnwise2458 Nope, it was heart felt and special. I really enjoyed it. Still doesn't change the fact the other players are terrible.
What the fuck?
I WOULD HAVE BLOCKED THAT . ..TRUCKEE HIGH IS 🗑
#inclusion :)
Ha...gay
That is the stupidest thing I have ever seen.
Big deal
!!!
