Crestwood's Losing Streak Is No More Thanks to Jeremie Richardson
Crestwood's three-game losing streak is now nothing but a memory thanks in part to Jeremie Richardson. Richardson was dynamite on Friday, picking up 81 receiving yards and a touchdown, while also punching in a rushing score. He also deserves a shoutout for his performance on D, making three total tackles and defending a pass.
Crestwood's victory bumped their record up to 3-4. Richardson and Crestwood will have some time to savor their win since their next game is a little ways off: they'll take on Darlington at 7:30 p.m. on October 25th.
