Mott joins Classmate Turley, 9 others in 1K Club

Never before had Rocket classmates entered the illustrious 1,000 Points Club in the same season, let alone within five days of one another.

On Tuesday at Union County, junior point guard Gabe Mott became the 11th player to ever score 1,000 or more points as a Rocket. His teammate Preston Turley got his 1,000th career point on Friday against Fort Campbell.

Crittenden lost 71-66 at Union County Tuesday as Mott scored 17. He got most of them in the fourth period. Mott went into the game needing 11 to get to 1K, and had just two points at the half. Fittingly, Mott's 1,000th came at the foul line where he's been remarkable his entire career.

The Rockets will be on the road Friday to play its final district game of the season at Livingston Central, which won for the first time this season on Monday against Fort Campbell.
