Boasting a good returning nucleus and looking to bounce back from last year’s winless campaign, Holley is prepping for the upcoming boys basketball season under new Coach Wil Prince.

The Hawks lineup includes seniors Andrew Moseman, Patrick Bower, Matt DeSimone, Ryan Andrews, Mike Passarell, Nick Schutz, Brandon Dillenbeck, Nate Towne, Jake Lang and Dalton Major along with juniors John Mounts, Matt Wilson, Matt Skehan and Brayden Ferrante.

“We’ve got great athletes we’re just going back to the basics stressing hard work, defense, team work and playing together,” said Prince who has taken over the varsity helm after coaching the Hawks JV squad last season.

Holley is slated to open the season at home on December 1 with a Genesee Region League game against Attica.
