Richmond Christian kicked off their season on the road on Tuesday and hit a couple of potholes. They took a 41-30 hit to the loss column at the hands of the Millwood Bobcats. The Warriors were given a dose of their own medicine in this game as the Bobcats apparently hadn't forgotten their defeat the last time these teams played back in December of 2019.
Griffin Aktalay was nothing short of spectacular for Millwood: he went 9 for 13 en route to 23 points plus six rebounds and three steals. The contest was Aktalay's third in a row with at least ten points. The team also got some help courtesy of Hazem Elkarim, who scored 11 points plus six rebounds and two steals.
The win made it two in a row for Millwood and bumps their season record up to 2-1.
