LA JUNTA, Colo. – The Seward County women's basketball team will return to Liberal 2-0 after winning both games at the Otero Classic, including a 102-54 win over Trinidad State College at the McDivitt Center on Saturday afternoon.

Holmes finished with four points, six rebounds and a team-high five assists.
