March Madness, Wofford and the 6-9 center who shoots free throws underhand

 

Wofford’s basketball team became well-known during March Madness for having a 6-9 center named *Noah Dahlman*, who gained attention for shooting free throws underhanded. Dahlman was a standout player for Wofford, and his unique free-throw style added a layer of intrigue to the team during their NCAA Tournament run.

Underhand free-throw shooting, although uncommon in modern basketball, has been used by players in the past, most notably by Hall of Famer Rick Barry, who was known for his success with it. The technique is said to be more accurate for some players because of the natural motion, but it’s rare to see at the professional and collegiate levels today.

If you’re referring to another specific instance or player from Wofford or March Madness, feel free to clarify!
