Boone County 55, Holmes 43
Senior guard Ciara Henderson scored 13 points and junior guard Christian Stefanopoulos had 10 points and seven assists to lead the Lady Rebels to the region final.
Boone County's defense held the Lady Bulldogs to 17-of-75 from the field, including 3-of-24 from 3-point range.
Holmes took a 32-30 lead with 3:56 left in the third on junior Valencia Jackson's field goal. But Boone County outscored them 18-11 in the fourth quarter.
“We couldn't have played better for three quarters,” Holmes coach Alison McCarthy said.
“Fourth quarter's usually our good quarter.”
Junior guard Erica Hallman led Holmes (17-13) with 17 points, but Boone County coach Nell Fookes said Jackson's 11 points were just as much a factor.
“That Valencia, she's quick, she's strong,” Fookes said.
