Fernandez crosses 1,000 point threshold
Dec 15, 2012
Darien Fernandez passed the 1,000 point mark in the Wareham Vikings' Friday, Dec. 14, victory over the Fairhaven Blue Devils. The score was 55-37.
“I had it in my head that I had to get it,” said Fernandez of the 1,000 points. “After I got it, I just played my game.”
Fernandez is now a little bit closer to the all-time boys scoring record of 1,224, currently held by Aaron Struthers.
“I’m not trying to get it," he said of the record. "If it happens, it happens."
The Vikings had an early lead, and while Fairhaven tightened up the score at some points, the Devils were no match for Wareham's dynamic offense.
