For Pete's Sake

Frank Mason got a hero’s welcome from KU teammates in locker room

Well this should be an interesting season for the KU men’s basketball team.

The Jayhawks have opened the season with an overtime loss and a victory on a last-second shot. Both games were against ranked opponents, including Tuesday’s 77-75 win over No. 1 Duke in the Champions Classic in New York.

Frank Mason hit the game-winning shot against the Blue Devils and his teammates swarmed him when he returned to the locker room and the celebration continued. KU basketball shared this video:
