Not sure about Conner, but Boone is definitely good enough to give Holmes a game. It might be a good thing, maybe the higher level of competition will bring out the best in the Bulldogs.

It sure had thus far.

Holmes beat Newport by 19 and 10.
Holmes beat Highlands by 11 in a game that they led by as many as 18 and double digits the whole game.
Holmes also beat Memphis Central early in the season...Memphis Central is rated as high as #14 nationally in some polls.

I guess we'll find out Wednesday night.

Sometimes you play to the level of your competition. It's hard to play against a team you know you can blow out of the gym. A performance like this starts with the coach though, he has to have his troops ready at all times.
Grats Holmes.

Coach Henley can only do so much. He has stated time after time in the past that there's going to be February nights that gyms are only half full...it's up to his players to step up to the challenge. Holmes coaching staff does as good of a job as anyone in the state when it comes to preparing the players.
