The Central Holmes Lady Trojans split a pair of games last week as they beat Benton 38-36 but lost to Manchester 53-27.
The Central Holmes football team had a recipe for beating top-ranked Greenville St. Joseph.
Central Holmes won its fourth straight game last week and did it with relative ease.
The Trojans scored at will as they ran out to a 28-0 lead and ended up beating homestanding Oak Hill 56-27 on Friday night.
Normally when winning the pre-game toss, Central Holmes coach Jim Crowder defers to the second half. But on Friday night against Hillcrest, Crowder won the toss and decided to take the ball.
After a rash of injuries stunted Central Holmes season, the Trojans are starting to get healthy and become the team that coach Jim Crowder thought they could be.
