How did Holmes make a 30-point comeback when then were only down by 10 at half and 14 after three quarters? Did Highlands score 16 straight to start the fourth or something?

Holmes scored 30 points in the fourth quarter after being down by 14 points at the end of three. That was the comeback. I wasn’t saying that they came back from a 30-point deficit.
