There were 54 Division III basketball buzzer beaters sent to us this past season, more than last season and nearly three per week. And we've whittled those down to six men's shots and four women's shots for voting for the 2012 D3hoops.com Buzzer Beater of the Year.

Voting will run through 11:59 p.m. ET on Thursday, March 29.

D3hoops.com buzzer beaters are sponsored by the City of Salem, host of the Division III men's basketball championships.
