Colorado State student hits half-court shot for tuition paid for by coaches
Colorado State student Andrew Schneeweis had three opportunities to earn free tuition by hitting a long-distance shot Saturday during the school's pep rally at Moby Arena. He only needed one.
Schneeweis nailed it on his first try forcing men's basketball coach Larry Eustachy, women's basketball coach Ryun Williams, football coach Jim McElwain and volleyball coach Tom Hilbert to make good on their pledge to pay for his tuition this year if he made it.
Hey @SportsCenter...you gotta see our man Andrew hit this half court shot for some free tuition! Wow! Happy to be paying some of the bill!!

Schneeweis later thanked the coaches on Twitter.
