There isn't a team in this region scary good. I saw the Holy Cross game. Not even close to a scary performance.

Fair enough.

Holmes may have one of the better sets of guards in the entire state in Palmer, Coston, Martin, Herndon and Bolden... Bolden is getting the least amount of playing time of all of them and is just a freshman but quite possibly is Holmes best guard and is getting more and more pt as the season rolls along...Rice is one of the most explosive players in the state and Knox, Lewis and Engelmon do the dirty work...It took a while for Holmes to figure out their rotation, build their depth and gain chemistry but its all coming.g together as of late...With their depth in the backcourt they cause fits for other teams with their pressure...The Dixie game will be a good measuring stick for Holmes but im starting too feel like Holmes could make a nice run come tourney time...This Holmes squad will be another one too challenge for another state title or two in the coming years Imo...

Nice, Thanks...I love the oop off the backboard from the freshman Bolden, maybe a little flashy but unselfish and sweet...Bolden has serious handles, athleticism and pg smarts for just a freshman!

I watched him once and instantly saw he has a chance to dominate over the next 3 seasons. His handle is crazy.

Thanks for posting Clyde.

 

Was just about to do the same. The one off the backboard over a defender is definetly on par with the Pittman windmill against Highlands his Jr year.

Agreed, looks like he should grow a couple more inches at least as well...I actually think he is the key to Holmes success this year, he is just that talented ...I think Booher realizes it as well, Bolden has been getting more and more minutes as of late...He does not play like a freshman at all...

I thought Ryle was awful. It may have been just a really poor performance.

Have they lost any players since the beginning of the season? I saw where they beat Cooper earlier in the year by 13.

#12 for Ryle seemed like a solid player but no one else really stood out.

 

Holmes played well and got out into transition.

Knox was not on the bench tonight or was Waller, and Holmes seemed to play quicker with Englemon in the game.

 

Nice pics panda and thanks for the link. The Bolden alley oop off the glass caught me by surprise.

Great work by Rick to record this action. I was sitting right beside him so our angles are about identical. The guys reactions in the crowd were priceless.

They have not lost anyone, played ALOT of this game with mostly JV players. Kids are jerked in and out for any mistake and can never get into the flow of a game. The have several solid players that are not allowed to "play" the game.

Box score anyone?

So you are saying it is better to leave a player who keeps making mistakes out there so he can "play" the game?
