Alex Rodriguez went viral over the weekend after hitting a half-court shot to win Ambler native Owen Garwood $10,000.

A Bucknell University student had one of the best days of his life on Sunday, all thanks to former baseball star Alex Rodriguez. Ambler native Owen Garwood is $10,000 richer after A-Rod showed he's got some game and sunk a half-court shot during a halftime contest at the Bucknell vs.

During halftime of the Bison's game against Army, Rodriguez was invited onto the court where he took a promotional half-court shot in hopes of winning one lucky student $10,000. A-Rod stepped to the line confidently and unloaded the ball from the half-court line and proceeded to bank the ball in off the backboard.
