Covington Holy Cross 76 Walton Verona 68

Final from Walton Verona High School.

Fun game to call on Holy Cross Radio as the Indians pick up a nice win on the road. Really fun atmosphere and the pace was up and down all night long. First time this year seeing Aaron Gutman and I came away very impressed. The kid can handle the ball, shoot from long distance and obviously finish at the rim. He was a tough guard tonight. On the Holy Cross side, they were led by Junior Brady Gabbard with 23 points including five 3-pointers. Senior William McElheney had 19 points, including hitting 8-8 free throws down the stretch to seal the win. Juniors Nate Rominger and Luke Arlinghaus added 14 & 12 points respectively.

* Holy Cross will play at Covington Catholic on Tuesday, then will host Beechwood on Friday night at the Finn Activity Center.
