The Huntington Herald Dispatch has an interesting article on Tanner Holden as the Herd travels to face Wright State:
HUNTINGTON — Tanner Holden thought he would wear the uniform of his father.
The former Wheelersburg High School all-Ohio basketball and football player was set to commit to Marshall University, where his dad Rodney is in the school’s athletic hall of fame and the Thundering Herd’s all-time leading rebounder after a stellar career from 1984 through 1988. The elder Holden earned All-Southern Conference honors and his son looked forward to doing so in Conference USA.
Marshall, however, pulled its scholarship offer late and the younger Holden signed with Wright State, the Herd’s opponent at 7 p.m. Thursday in Dayton, Ohio. The Herd is 1-0. The Raiders are playing their opener after opting out of last week’s game at Illinois because of players testing positive for COVID-19 left Wright State with just six available players.(excerpt)
