From Fox News: Florida center Olivier Rioux made history during the team’s 102-61 victory over Saint Francis on Wednesday night when the world’s tallest teen recorded his first collegiate field goal in the final minutes of the game.
The Canadian phenom, already a fan favorite, entered the game in the final two minutes of the contest, drawing loud cheers from the crowd, when earlier in the night began chanting “We want Ollie!”
With 43 seconds left, Rioux caught a bounce pass from teammate CJ Ingram and dunked, his feet barely leaving the ground in the process.
At 7-foot-9, Rioux became the tallest player in college basketball history to make a field goal.
