Words.

Class of 2011 power forward Vinny Zollo of George Rogers Clark (Winchester, KY) channeled his inner Shaq with a devastating dunk attempt on a fast break against Wheeler (Mariette, GA) at the Beach Ball Classic in Myrtle Beach, S.C. Zollo, who is signed with Western Kentucky, shattered the backboard but no pieces of glass fell to the ground.

“I just pulled it down as hard as I can, trying not to fall down and break my neck,” Zollo said. “That’s how you break a backboard: bringing it home, slam it, bring it down.”
