Game Review
Kennedy: Kennedy played a solid game and came out with the win. They played from behind most the game, their defense in the second half won the game. Jumah'ri Turner played a complete guard game, turning defense to offense and scoring big 23 pts. Mouhari Mouhamed had foul trouble and never really was a factor. Dejon Davis only had 3pts in first half but took over the game in the second half with 21 points and 24 for the game with the win. Coaching by Perkins payed big with a early season for win a program making big changes this season.
Richfield: Richfild played a good and very competitive game. Deshawn Jones dominated the first half of the game with 19pts but could not finish the high performance with 7 in the second half, 26 for the game with the lose. Richfield got good contributions from their bench from Jawann Ross 8pts and Patrick Dembley. Ed played his best game with 18pts and carried his team in the second half. Richfield really should have won, the turn overs killed them.
