Michigan Women’s Basketball Team Viral Pool Side Trick Shot

You may have enjoyed pool time over the Fourth of July weekend, but chances are you and your friends did not make a trick shot like the Michigan Women's Basketball team did at their pool party.

The team's video of the excellent trick shot was posted to Twitter Sunday, July 3rd, and has since gone viral. The timing and skill of the players in the clip are beyond impressive. What are the odds that they nailed the shot on the first try? Regardless if they got it right the first time or the tenth time, it is sports video gold.

As you will see in the video below, this was a total team effort. The ball is tossed down to the pool from a second-story balcony, from there the ball is thrown back and forth by the players nine times.

Each time I watched the video I found another detail I missed. How about the player coming down the slide and still managing to pass the ball on? Or how about the players jumping into the water while completing a pass?

Try this trick yourself at your next pool party. I am guessing it won't look as effortless and smooth as the Michigan Women's Basketball team, but for some reason, if it does - send me a video and I will post yours too.
