AJ Nywesh Scores 1,000th career point at Lake Region State College

It was the first two points of the game, on a 1 dribble pull up jumper from AJ Nywesh. It was a simple shot that Nywesh had hit many times before. This shot however was different, this shot put him in the Lake Region State College record books with elite company. At the 18:26 minute mark of the first half in Lake Region States road game versus United Tribes, AJ Nywesh scored his 1,000th career point as a Royal. He became 12th all-time in scoring at Lake Region State College. He finished the night with 18 more points bringing his total to 1,018 only 8 points behind former ND Mr. Basketball Melvin Langstaff's total of 1,026 who is number 11 on the list. 

AJ will have a chance to add to his point total on Wednesday night at 8:30pm when the Royals take on Dakota College at Bottineau on Sophomore Night.
