I still don't think Riley is taking enough attempts. He has to get 10 to 12 looks a game. He is shooting 80 percent from the floor. I think he will be the key Sunday. If he is agressive, the game can be a classic. If not SC will probably pull away in the 4th.

I agree. He was 4 for 4 from the field last night but did pass up a few looks. I've been trying to tell him since the season started to be more aggressive and shoot the way he did against Beechwood and good things will come to this Holmes team. He will likely be the best shooter on the floor in every game this year.

looks like Holmes is getting back on track just in time for Scott County. I am excited and looking forward to catching the game. I think playing Ricardo at point when Riley is out is a great move. How old is the third Johnson? Any relation to the other two brothers?

He's a senior. No relation.

I figured the game would go about like it did. Newport just have to keep there heads up and play hard every game. Glad to see Housely is fittin in well.
