Blogs > Burney's Bytes

Burney's Bytes will focus primarily on the local preps sports scene, but will also touch on some college and pro athletics, mostly in regards to athletes who hail and have played high school sports in Oakland County. My goal for the blog is to be conversational and anecdotal, a more relaxed and free formal take on high school athletics than you see in regular game day coverage.

Electric Horsemen

Let's check in with the up-and-coming Holly boys hoops squad, a group of young-gun ballers on the way to the top of the area's high school cage scene with a bullet:
The Bronchos finished the June team camp and summer league schedule 16-2, their only losses coming to local powerhouses Clarkston and Birmingham Detroit Country Day.
In the club's final game of the weekend up at the Central Michigan team camp, sophomore sniper Kyle Woodruff, one of the best pure shooters this area has seen in quite a while, blistered the nets for 35 points on 8-of-10 from 3-point distance.
Woodruff's running buddy, junior Jake Daniels, was destroying the competition this last month as well, pumping in over 20 points per contest. Daniels can do a little bit of everything and do it really good.
Fellow juniors Parker Rowse, Morgan Baylis and Isaac Casillas, all entering their third year on the Bronchos varsity this winter, were their usual nails-tough and fundamentally-sound selves. Casillas, Holly's leading-scorer as a Fab Frosh back in 2012, missed last season due to health issues and has been quick to return to his crafty ways on the court.
Josh Simms, the team's all-league sixth-man, was on the shelf with a football injury, but the aforementioned gunners more than picked up the slack.
Senior Logan Spiker and sophomore Adam Tooley looked nice in the post, holding down Holly's duties in the frontcourt.
Freshman forward Trevor Bland has been a pleasant surprise this offseason and has most likely secured a spot in the Bronchos rotation.
Expect Holly to continue to blaze its way to through the area's BALLERSPHERE for the foreseeable future.
