If Highlands comes out of the zone, they get beat through the lane. Giving up 2's is better than giving up 3's though I guess. Defense is laxed for Highlands this year. Either way, it's Holmes all the way i think.

Holmes can't seem to put a team away most of the time. Here's betting that Highlands comes out in a zone the 2nd half and Holmes shooting cools down and let's them back in the game.

37 to 25 Bulldogs lead the Birds at the half.

You mean comes out of the zone? They have been in a zone the entire 1st half and Holmes is shooting lights out. I gurantee they have atleast 7 three pointers in the first half. I will go back through this update thread and count.

They have 8 three pointers I believe. Rice has 11 in the first half and had a huge game against the Birds last year as a sophomore.

Very possible. If the shooting continues the zone breaks down. If Highlands has to go man, they get beat. If Holmes shooting cools, then Highlands can do work. I agree.
