Final...close game until Boone pulled away late with fts.

Coach M can coach.

Boone County has solid guards who can handle the basketball.

Holmes made a run but couldn't get over the hump. It was not a good shooting night for the Dogs.

 

Holmes has to close the rest of the year on the road starting with tilt on the hill at NCC Friday.

Looks like we can throw Boone into the mix of contenders for the 9th.

Boone Co. (21-5) -- McQueary 21, Pitts 12, Stanley 10, Carr 10, Downs 6, Palmer 2.

Holmes (18-6) -- Rice 19, Palmer 13, Waller 6, Knox 4, Lewis 4, Coston 2, Martin 2, Englemon 1.

If Holmes shoots Well they win.

Outside shooting is Holmes' weakness.

You just never know with the dogs. I was out of town and was told BC was just better tonight. I heard the dogs played their seniors most of the game because of senior night and that Palmer and Colston did not play their usual minutes, however, they said Boone was scrappy and played well, it may not have mattered. Any details?

Looks like we can throw Boone into the mix of contenders for the 9th.

 

Ummm ... was there a time they weren't in the mix? If they beat Dixie next week, they go into the postseason the number one team in the region. Not that they are dominating anyone but they just keep winning.

 

Here are your six true contenders for regional title - Dixie, Boone, Holy Cross, Holmes, New Cath and as an outside chance, Cov Cath if they upset Holy Cross in district.

Pictures from the night.

 

 

Holmes led 22-20 and then never led again the rest of the game.

It just seemed like Boone wanted it more.
