It is always fun to look back a bit at history but as we take a long look at things today, we realize just how significant some accomplishments can be. This goes even for team history especially as some milestones are more commonplace on a team by team basis. The moment we bring to you today happened 18 years ago and this player probably was as shocked as anyone else. As always, a video will come first followed by the historical gem.
