Mekai Collins made his return to Cedar Ridge in a big way on Monday night. Collins, after spending last year at Orange, had a game-high 20 points as the Red Wolves defeated the North Carolina School of Science & Math. 77-48. The Red Wolves never trailed after Chris Tinnen opened the game with a technical free throw after the Unicorns were called for dunking in pregame warmups. Once the game started, Collins’ up-tempo game kicked into high gear as the Red Wolves scored 49 points in the first half. Collins spent his first two seasons at Cedar Ridge. After he left following his sophomore season, the Red Wolves went 1-23 last year. On Wednesday, Cedar Ridge will try to surpass its win total from all of last season when they travel to Carrboro. You can hear that game on Hillsboroughsports.com starting a 6 PM with the women’s game. Tim Hackett & Jason Knapp will have the call.
