N.Ky. boys basketball roundup
Holy Cross upsets No. 1 CovCath
The Cincinnati Enquirer
Rob Feldman sank a 3-pointer with just more than one minute left to give Holy Cross a 55-54 lead over top-ranked Covington Catholic en route to a 56-54 victory Tuesday night.
The Indians tightened their defense in the closing minute and held Covington Catholic scoreless.
“We didn't want to let Steve Purdon or Brian McQuade beat us,” Holy Cross coach Dan Trame said. “They had a couple different looks, but nothing fell.”
Covington Catholic led most of the game, but Holy Cross stormed back in the fourth quarter by hitting four 3-pointers. Feldman scored 10 in the fourth, including three 3-pointers.
