Holy Cross travels to Holmes Friday night for the annual Covington City Championship.

 

Holmes comes in 12-1 with an 11 game win streak.

 

Holy Cross comes in 9-4, winning 6 of their last 7.

 

Holmes has won 5 of the last 6 in this rivalry by an average of 17 ppg.

 

Thoughts?

Im only partially familiar with Holy Cross, but with the fire power Holmes brings to a game, I would have to say Holmes 15 or even better. Again I could be greatly surprised.

Key to the game for HC is how well Giwa plays. He hasn't fared too well the last few times out against Holmes which has led to blow outs.

How does HC score in this game?

Holmes by 15+

Holmes is going to win by around 18. Pittman will get 25 and a dunk.

Holmes by 22+

For the record, I posted the above BEFORE the Brossart debacle tonite.

 

22 against Brossart? I'm saying 57 - 12.

Holy Cross is looking at the 4th seed in their district and will have to play Holmes again in the district....which means a big loss. Holy Cross is not making it to the regional tourney this year.

22 points??? ouch.... Holmes 71 - 49

Holmes by 20+.

After the way Holy Cross played against Brossart tonight, I really don't see them scoring more than 30 points in this game.

 

Holmes 53

Holy Cross 25

Holmes by 25+. I do look for Holy Cross to have an offensive explosion and score 40.

Holmes 79-60.

I think Holmes could win by 40+
