Averaged 19ppg and 6rpg as a freshman last season at Concordia HS. Was KBCA Class 4A honorable mention.

@sportsinkansas Next "Faces in Kansas" Cooper Holmes out of Concordia? Avg 19 ppg as freshman last year... Wichita State is already on him

Freshman year highlights:

I hadn't watched the video yet when I posted this. This kid's got game with range out to 23 feet. Rebounds, posts up, runs the floor. He does play AAU ball so he's not going to get overlooked like Baker. But hopefully, if we're in early that will make a difference.

After watching the video, my first thought was Ron "The Maker" Baker II. :good:

Lot's of similarities, except that this kid will likely grow to be 6'6 or taller.

So he must be paying for the visit out of his own pocket right?

Lot's of recognizable faces in that video for me.

Coach Taylor (Abilene) can't be too happy with his team allowing him wide open 3's.

How tall is he now Royal?

Anybody know if he really was at the game today?

Not sure. I would assume he's probably grown an inch since last year.

Cooper's dad, Derrick, played on a couple of Heller's KCAC championship teams at Friends. Derrick was an All-KCAC player while playing for the Falcons.

Not a bad pedigree...
