OKC Player of the Week: Kevonte Richardson, Millwood
Millwood's Kevonte Richardson is this week's OKC Player of the Week
Kevonte Richardson, Millwood
Richardson, a junior, turned in the best game of his career with the Falcons, throwing for a career-high 265 yards and four touchdown in Millwood’s 40-6 win over Star Spencer.
Richardson has shown flashes of stardom since taking over for Gerald Jones as a freshman. Now, he seems ready to fully become the star on Millwood’s offense.
If Richardson can continue to be as successful throwing the ball as he was in the opener, the Falcons will be in an excellent position to win yet another state title.

Ryan, can you help a fan out and suggest to whomever is running the site to find a button or something to access the weeks scores. This new design is not conducive to a quick look for statewide scores. I’m still trying to find a simple score listing. Thanks!
