Seth Kraft, a roughly four-foot-tall senior, has been the student manager for the boys basketball team in Laurel, Mont. for four years.
For his 18th birthday, the Locomotives' coach, Pat Hansen, who jokes Seth is "4-1 with a ladder, maybe," decided to let him show off his skills on the court.
The stands were packed for the Senior Night game, and everyone came to cheer Seth on.
“I will steal the ball if I have the chance,” Kraft said before the game. “I’m not going to take it easy on them. It’ll be great if I score, but it’s OK if I don’t. I’ll be successful tonight if I make an impact, even a small one.”
It didn't take long for Seth to get ahold of the ball.
And he scores!
The crowd exploded with excitement.
Friends and classmates were psyched for Seth's birthday success.
