per Chris Vogt, Butler Co. Journal – Hamilton was powered in the first quarter by Holden’s mammoth slam that towered over Sycamore’s 6-foot-11 senior Raleigh Burgess. The Big Blue took an 8-6 lead into the second quarter.

“That thing should be on ESPN Top 10,” Higgins described the Holden dunk. “He posterized him. That was big time. That set the tone. We were a little … and he did that, our dudes feed it from that point on. We had a little edge to us. That was big time.

“I’ve told people, we see stuff in practice people don’t realize and sometimes in games. But that was about as good of a high school dunk as I’ve ever seen.”
