(2019) C Mackenzie Holmes to IUWBB

[Class of '66 Old Fart 81,151]

ESPN's Player of the Week

Player of the Week: Mackenzie Holmes, Indiana

Holmes has been outstanding all season, but the 6-foot-3 forward seems to have found an even higher gear in Big Ten play. In the Hoosiers' three victories last week -- vs. Michigan, Ohio State and Rutgers -- she had 25, 26 and 21 points while going 28-of-40 from the field (70%). She also had 20 rebounds.

"It's a guard's dream to play with Mackenzie Holmes," teammate Grace Berger said. "You just throw it to her and you're going to get an automatic assist. This season has been super special to watch. She was always good, but to see the consistency, to see her taking over that leadership role and doing it night in and night out against the best teams in the country."

Seth Tow in Daily Hoosier….won’t find a better write up than he did on Mac Holmes and she deserves every single word of it.
