If you could choose 5 players from your era past or present..who would your 5 be?

 

Mine....for NKY players.

 

PG- Dicky Beal Holmes 80'

SG- Scott Draud HHS 86'

F- Ross Neltner HHS 02'

F- Jack Jennings Holmes 88'

C- Chris Haynes Scott 90'

PG- Dicky Beal Holmes 80'

SG- Scott Draud HHS 86'

F- Doug Schloemer Holmes 78'

F- Randy Knoll CovCath 68'

C- Don Turney CovCath 81'

I am guessing Bob Arnzen and Dave Cowens need to be on this 5.

1. Beal

2. Draud

3. Jeff Stowers

4. Bob Arnzen

5. Dave Cowens

For the Hazard Bulldogs it would be:

 

Carl Wallace point guard 1986

 

John Hagans 2 Guard 1972

 

Jim Rose 3 Guard 1966

 

Dickie Alexander Power Forward 1980

 

Chester Rose Center 1965

I am guessing Bob Arnzen and Dave Cowens need to be on this 5.

1. Beal

2. Draud

3. Jeff Stowers

4. Bob Arnzen

5. Dave Cowens

 

Going to go back a little further....

 

Turner from Dixie went on to play at U of L and Tom Thacker from Covington Grant. Add those to Beal, Schloemer and Draud

Chris was the best athlete to ever come to Holmes in my mind before he got hurt but I think I would have to put Anthony Hughes in my starting 5 even though Hughes was a true point guard. And if you bring up Chris you could even bring up Feodi Beal (spelling?) Dicky's nephew. I heard he was better then Dicky but we never got to see.

How would we know if we never got to see? I am sure there are a handfull of guys you could pick off the playground parks down in Covington that never saw the floor and they could be in the mix over the past 30 yrs.....

Outstanding athlete no doubt about it. Like we used to say in the hallway at school, death , taxes, and Chris Hayes getting you 20. His injusry was very unfortunate, and he average 18 his senior year dragging one leg the whole time.

That's what everyone who saw him play said. He played I think up until his 10th grade year. So your right we will never know and it's a shame we didnt get the chance.
