So back to back years at Holmes?

I believe both of these teams are teams on the rise. I don’t believe Holmes is 20 points better than HC, but last night they were. That’s how the game is sometimes. Both will be better going forward.

35th is at Holmes.

 

Oh boy, that potential 35th semi at Holmes between the Bulldogs and the Tigers, with Coach Goetz's first Regional appearance hanging in the balance, will be must-see!!!

35th District will be at Holmes going forward from what I was told.

I can buy this. Holmes was dynamite last night, but I'm pretty sure that Holy Cross could play them closer if not for their All 'A' hangover. Both teams are improving and are more capable than most have given them credit for.

Excellent call Ironlung, not sure why this game was scheduled right after the all "A".

 

It was probably scheduled by the two former coaches.

That would be my guess, thx

Congrats to the Bulldogs. Good teams show up and play. The schedule is the schedule but using that as an excuse is a stretch. I would halfway understand if the game margin was say 8 points or less but to get beat by 19 points and to be down at some point by 30 as someone said by a team that on paper is supposed to be the better team is no more than simply being outplayed. If HC is that much better than Holmes then that margin should have been much closer then I might buy the fatigue (physical or mental) argument. This is no different for teams that make the Sweet 16 basically, you have to show up and play and teams don’t get nearly 3 days rest between games. The better team won that night and whether it’s an outlier or not is debatable and could be settled at district time.

Looks like the tough love is starting to work. Coach Carr is being tweeted about by his players They're buying in. I could be wrong, but it appears as if they believe he cares, not only about them as players, but as kids. Tez is a great example, "uncoachable" was the label by some. I've seen him twice this year. Kid can play, great demeanor and nothing but respect towards Coach Carr.
