Final.

 

Holmes improves to 22-0.

 

Bolden led the way with 25.

Thanks Walter

The score was 88-62.

 

Holmes - Bolden 25; Englemon 13; Chames 12

 

Beechwood - Huff 23

 

About what everyone expected. Holmes just has more talent. The 'dogs got up early, led by as much as 30. Bolden was way too much for the Tigers. Huff had a really nice game for B'wood.

Would of been a much better game if it were held outside at Latonia Elementary .

The Bulldogs lived up to their billing. They are a very good team and Bolden is an excellent player.

 

I have to ask the question. Why did Beechwood's coach not play any of his bench? It was a 20-30 point spread the entire second half and Beechwood stuck with their starters and regular subbing rotation. Can anyone think of any reason why you wouldn't let the other kids play?

Thanks. AllSport71 gave me the final so that's what I posted.

 

Good to hear Chames continues to play well.

I have no idea, I didn't even notice that until the final seconds. Holmes starters probably played about 3 quarters total. Sat some near the end of the 1st half and last 4:00

Bolden stat line tonight:

 

25 pts, 7 ast, 6 stls, 6 rbs

 

Strong.

He pretty much did what he wanted.

Booher had his JV on the floor to start the 4th quarter. He played those guys for the first couple minutes of the quarter. Then, as Beechwood left their starters in, Booher went ahead and put most of his starters back in. After a couple minutes of that, Booher called a timeout. When he called that timeout, he gave a look down at Miller wondering what the heck he was doing. My guess is Booher was thinking maybe Miller would put his subs in then but he didn't. Booher went ahead and put his JV guys back in for the rest of the game. Beechwood ended the game with their starting five out there.

No it wouldn't :lol:

I wasn't paying a lot of attention, but we wondered why Booher called a timeout halfway through the 4th.

Holmes 31-55 fg for the game.

Beechwood 18-39 fg for the game.

I guess no one else cares, but let me rant a little. I think it was embarrassing and disrespectful what Coach Miller did tonight. There are players working their rear end off every day in practice who would have loved to get on the floor tonight against Holmes. I know there is at least one senior who did not get to play one second tonight. I think that is terrible. I also think it is bad for team morale and for the program. My guess is every player, starter and sub, for Beechwood walked out of that gym shaking their head at what their coach did tonight. If someone can defend it, please speak up.

Unless the SR you mention did something to deserve sitting the bench the entire game (and I'll assume he didn't) then I'm in full agreement with you.
