UMass men's basketball coach Frank Martin says the university stepped up to pay a student $10,000 after an insurance dispute arose over whether he made a half-court shot during a halftime promotion at a women's basketball game.
“Just got out of practice and Heard that UMASS athletics stepped up and got it done for Noah. Everybody wins,” men’s basketball coach Frank Martin said on XUMass said it would pay a student the $10,000 prize for a halftime promotion at a women’s basketball game after a dispute with an insurance company over whether he stepped over the line when he made a half-court shot .
“After their review of the four camera angles we provided, they determined the half-court shot was disqualified as it was not taken behind the half-court line,” the school said Friday. “We weren’t satisfied with that outcome and arrived at the decision to provide Noah with both a $10,000 award and a host of additional UMass athletics benefits.”
“No formal claim or request for prize money was made by the University to Odds On in this matter,” the company said. “Odds On was not involved in the initial invalidation of the contest win and only became aware of the University’s decision to not pay the contestant through media coverage.”
