Consolation
Uploaded: March 03, 2013

The Philadelphia City (Catholic League vs. Public League Champion teams)Championship basketball game was played at St. Joseph University Friday night.
---
The little boy is the son of the Head Coach of the team that eventually lost by a single fowl shot in the final second.
---
In this scene, there are several seconds left on the clock, and the team's fate is inevitable. The coach, whose face had been in his hands moments earlier, is telling the boys to be proud. And the little boy is emulating his Dad, providing consolation for his "adopted brothers."
