Voting for Eli! If he wins, the South Dearborn athletic department will receive a $500 prize.

(Aurora, Ind.) - Eli Hoffman has a flair for the dramatics.

In the waning moments of the IHSAA Sectional 29 semi-finals against Batesville, the South Dearborn sophomore dribbled to his left off of a ball screen and nailed a game-winning three-point shot.

His heroic play was listed as one of 32 top plays from the 2019-20 sports year, as part of the ISC Sports Network March Madness 2020 Play of the Year competition.

Bracket style voting began in mid-March and Hoffman's near buzzer-beating three has made it to the finals.

The Knights star is up against a student-athlete from North Montgomery High School.

Voting started Monday and will run through Friday, May 1. Knights fans are encouraged to vote for Hoffman on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram. Just go to the ISC Sports Network page.

The winner will be awarded $500 to their school's athletic department.
