Early in December, the Utah Valley men’s basketball team found itself down by three points on the road against Northern Arizona with mere seconds remaining on the game clock.
At the line for the Wolverines was senior free throw deadeye Ryan Toolson.
Seconds earlier, Toolson had seemingly willed a 3 point shot into the goal, only to have a referee rule he was fouled before the shot attempt, and two shots would be all he would get.
After making his first attempt, Toolson,
100% AuthenticQuality For Sale Tiffany Blue Nikes, whose collegiate free throw percentages rival the best in NCAA history, looked toward Utah Valley coach Dick Hunsaker, indicating he would purposely miss the second shot to give his team a chance at a game tying, two point field goal.
"He wanted to miss the next one," Hunsaker said, instead of wanting to pad his stats. "I told him to make it and he did which . speaks of his desire, his competitive fight to win."
In his final season at Utah Valley, Ryan Toolson is poised to make his mark on basketball history, even if it won’t ever go down in any record books. With Tuesday’s game at North Dakota,

free throw percentage of 94.2 percent,

But, given Utah Valley’s NCAA provisional status remaining in place through the end of this season, those stats which are mere 10ths of a point behind the NCAA free throw percentage record will never make their way into the official record books. Former Missouri State player Blake Ahearn, who shot at a 94.6 percent clip for his career, will remain alone atop the record book.
"He’s right on the brink," said his dad,

Ryan Toolson said he’s aware of the close proximity of his percentage and Ahearn’s career record. He’s calculated it out and said he’d be ahead if Ahearn had missed just one more of his free throw attempts,

"It’s always kind of a competition to me to see who’s ahead of me," he said. "Or how many free throws I have to make to get ahead of him."
Even if he doesn’t make the record books for the NCAA, he’s certainly rewritten them at Utah Valley. He’s the school record holder for points in a career, points in a game, field goals made, nearly every 3 point field goal record, and just about anything that says free throw on it.
According to his mom,

2014 Cheap Nike Roshe 2015, Ryan Toolson has been getting to the line since he was just a little tyke growing up in Gilbert, Ariz.
When Ryan Toolson was just two, she said, he had a little plastic basketball standard he would play with in the family room. A broken backboard on the standard proved beneficial for the sharp shooting toddler. Ryan Toolson would bounce a ball down their tile hallway and then run back to the family room. Even without the backboard, Ryan Toolson could make the shot from anywhere in the room.
"That’s why we always laugh,

In 2003,

"He wasn’t your typical leading scorer on regular teams,
Cheap AuthenticRunning Shoes Nike Free Run Hot Punch, because those guys shoot up 30 or 40 shots per game," said Tommy Hambicki, Gilbert’s point guard that season. "Ryan took maybe 15 shots per game; he was just really more selective and more of a team player."
Ryan Toolson scored 22 points in the state championship game,

"By golly, who would have ever thought that five kids from Gilbert High no taller than 6 3,

Still best friends with Ryan Toolson now, Hambicki can’t say enough about his friend’s basketball skills, but he’s quick to point out that there’s far more to Ryan Toolson than just putting the ball through the hoop.
"You’re not going to find a more quality type person, in my opinion," Hambicki said. "Ryan’s one of the few people I can say is a whole hearted, genuine person."
Just a few short months after the state championship win during their senior year, Hambicki was involved in a rollover accident in which he broke his back,

"He was at the hospital visiting me all the time," Hambicki said. "And always expressed how much I meant to him as friends. He was always there for me like a brother type person."
Agreeing with Hambicki, Cheri Toolson said a young Ryan Toolson came to her once and gave her $50 of his own money. He asked her to buy a certain pair of Nike shoes, take them to a schoolmate’s home, ring the bell and run away. class. He told her he just felt sick when the other kids made fun of him.
"He’s just nice,

What’s nice for Utah Valley is that Ryan Toolson chose to play for the Wolverines. He said a lot of people question his decision to come to play in Orem instead of at BYU or Arizona State.

"Obviously, he was looking at BYU because his cousin (Austin Ainge) was playing up there and his uncle (Danny Ainge) played there and cousin (Andy Toolson) played there and his dad went there and his mom went there," Mike Toolson said.
