Booker T. Washington came into their game on Saturday off a hard-fought close win, but unfortunately suffered a serious change of fortune. They were dealt a 69-40 defeat at the hands of the Hillcrest Vikings. The Warriors were given a dose of their own medicine in this game as the Vikings apparently hadn't forgotten their loss the last time these teams played back in February of 2024.
Hillcrest's success was the result of a balanced attack that saw several players step up, but Jerrell Miller led the charge by putting up 16 points in addition to six boards and six steals. That's the most steals Miller has posted since back in December of 2024. The team also got some help courtesy of Ja'Coby Lewis, who made all 5 shots he took racking up 18 points and three steals.
