Free Throw
Belmont University student Juawana Patton won a semester's free tuition by hitting a half-court shot at halftime of the men's basketball game game Saturday (Feb. 28) between the Belmont Bruins and Georgia State, the last regular season basketball game before the start of the Atlantic Sun Men's Basketball Tournament.

Patton is the first winner in the Tuition Timeout contest, started this year by Belmont University President Dr. Robert Fisher as an incentive to promote student participation at basketball games at the new Curb Event Center.
