William Carey University cheerleader Ashlee Arnau wowed her home crowd and YouTube viewers around the world when she nailed a soccer-throw-in style, front-flip shot from halfcourt during halftime of a game on Thursday. The shot was so impressive that she spent time the next day teaching it to a Harlem Globetrotter.

That’s right, Firefly Fisher, a member of the greatest trick-shot basketball team of all time, was taking lessons from a college cheerleader. Arnau, who also plays soccer at William Carey, sank her unique halfcourt heave a second time with Fisher at Southern Mississippi University’s Reed Green Coliseum, and will try it yet again during the Globetrotters’ game at the arena next Wednesday.

Check out Arnau and Fisher trading trick shots in the video below.
