Fellowship Hoopster Reaches 1,000-Point Mark

Senior Roger Rickman achieved the milestone earlier this week.

From John Heid at Fellowship Christian Academy, which honored senior basketball player Roger Rickman before Friday's game against The Galloway School after he topped the 1,000-point mark earlier this week: 

Fellowship Christian School senior Roger Rickman netted 12 points to top 1,000 points for his varsity basketball career as the Paladins dropped a 38-28 decision at 3A Blessed Trinity on Tuesday, Nov. 19.

Rickman, who has 1,006 career points, scored 44 points as an eighth-grader on the varsity team at Pine Castle Christian Academy in Florida. He netted 248 points as a freshman at FCS in 2010-11, scored 267 points during his sophomore campaign and netted a career-high 420 points as a Paladin junior last season. Rickman has scored 26 points in two contests this season.

On Tuesday, Hunter Bryant added nine points for the Paladins (0-2 overall).

FCS outscored the Titans 19-8 in the third quarter to tie the game at 28-28, but BT went on a 10-0 fourth-quarter run to pull out the victory. The game was tied 9-9 through the first period, and BT led 20-9 at halftime.
