A lucky Bucknell student was beneficiary of Alex Rodriguez's unknown talent, winning $10,000 because the ex-MLB star drained a half-court shot.

The former Mariners, Rangers and Yankees star drilled a halfcourt shot Sunday afternoon at Bucknell, going off the glass, and in the process won $10,000 for a Bison student. He responded appropriately with both hands raised in shock, and beelined to the student section to lap up the big win.

Alex Rodriguez's half-court heave during Bucknell's clash with Army had some wondering just what school did he attend prior to his matriculation the bigs.
