Video: Cheerleader makes amazing front flip half court shot

Ashlee Arnau, a cheerleader at William Carey University, electrified the crowd last night by making a front-flip half-court shot.

A basketball was placed at mid-court. Arnau ran toward the ball, executed a front-flip, grabbed the ball while upside down and tossed it toward the basket as she flipped upright again.

The ball splashed through the net and the crowd went crazy.

Arnau, a 21 year old nursing student, had spent months trying to make the shot during the halftime break at WCU games. But this was the first time she was successful.
