Concord had to start their season on the road on Tuesday, and it wasn't the start they were hoping for. They were beaten by the Central Cabarrus Vikings 55-22. Sadly, the defeat continues a streak the team started last season, making it six in a row.
When it comes to explaining why Concord lost, don't look at Taryn Blue. Despite the final result, she shot 60% from the field to rack up 17 points and seven rebounds.
Myajah Nix was nothing short of spectacular for Central Cabarrus: she dropped a double-double with 26 points and 14 boards. Nix is on a roll when it comes to rebounds, as she's now pulled down eight or more in each of the last five games she's played dating back to last season. Another player making a difference was Jahnae Duncan, who posted eight points in addition to seven boards and five assists.
Coincidentally, Concord and Central Cabarrus will both be playing Mount Pleasant the next time they take the court. The Spiders will host the Tigers at 6:00 p.m. on Thursday, while the Vikings will head out to face them at 5:00 p.m. on Saturday.
