                  he was on his home court in nearby Hamilton and the University
                  of Saint Francis held off a last minute Tri-State University
                  rally for a 72-69 win at Hershey Hall late Saturday afternoon.<br>
                  &nbsp;&nbsp; Holden, a 2001 Hamilton High School graduate,
                  scored five points in a 9-2 USF run after Tri-State (2-4) had
                  drawn within a point, 55-54, with 5:49 to play in the game.
                  Holden also contributed with a big blocked shot in the run and
                  finished with 22 points and 12 rebounds, the first
                  double-double of the season for 6-3 USF.<br>
                  &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; The Cougars have won five straight games
                  and will put their streak on the line on Tuesday night at
                  Siena Heights in Adrian, Mich. Tipoff is 7 p.m. Tri-State
                  dropped its third straight game and home opener.<br>
                  &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Holden, who connected on 9-of-12
                  shots, was one of three Cougars in double figures. Nick
                  Ankenbruck added 13 points including the final point of the
                  game when he hit 1-of-2 free throws giving USF final margin of
                  victory with 2.7 seconds to play. Jontae James added 10 points
                  and three assists.<br>
                  &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; USF led 32-29 at the half on 46 percent
                  shooting. TSU shot 42 percent in the first half. Neither team
                  shot well. USF shot 43 percent for the game on 26-of-61, TSU
                  shot 42 percent on 24-of-57. The Cougars did outscore TSU
                  27-19 off the bench and 15-9 from three-point range.</span>
