Team Song: We Bring The Energy

We caught up with Ryan G, captain of Buzzer Beater Anonymous, to talk team chemistry, basement hoops, and what it’s like building something from the ground up in the Pop-A-Shot Virtual League.

What follows is a somewhat accurate transcript, edited for clarity, brevity, and journalistic integrity.  

q&a with the captain of buzzer beater anonymous

Pop-A-Shot: Thanks for the time Ryan. Let's start with the team, how does everyone know each other?
 

Ryan G: Honestly, I originally thought this was a solo league :) When I found out I needed teammates I recruited:

  • AUNTIED (who owns the game)
  • JENNA (my super competitive girlfriend)
  • CTERPSTRA (AuntieD's sister-in- law who also has that competitive spirit)

Pop-A-Shot: Where is the team's home court?
 

Ryan G: We play at the "Leone Rec Center," aka the basement of AuntieD's house, in Owatonna MN.
 

Pop-A-Shot: I know the team is still coming together, but are any strengths or weaknesses starting to emerge?
 

Ryan G: Our strength is our energy. Our weakness is our averages :)

CTERPSTRA, AUNTIED, JENNA, RYRYGEE

Pop-A-Shot: Ha. I can vouch for the energy, it's fun hearing you cheer each other on in your videos. I'm sure the averages will come. 

 

You've opened the season with two losses. What's the focus moving forward?
 

Ryan G: For week 2 our big goal was getting everyone into the bonus round. Mission accomplished. Jenna and AuntieD actually had their highest scores ever. The week 3 goal is to bring our best and try to pull out a W. 
 

Pop-A-Shot: Anything else you'd like to share?
 

Ryan G: We'll continue to play as a team every Saturday. This year we’re just building something special for years to come 

building something worthwhile

Win or lose, Buzzer Beater Anonymous is clearly about more than just the final score—they’re about energy, consistency, and building something that lasts. From Saturday sessions at the Leone Rec Center to celebrating personal bests, Ryan and his crew embody what makes the Pop-A-Shot Virtual League special: community, competition, and a whole lot of fun.
