Woodrow falls at GW on record night for Cook, McMillen
Oct. 23—CHARLESTON — The game had a little bit of everything for Woodrow Wilson. including a couple of defensive touchdowns and an individual record-setting night.
Just like last year, however, the only thing missing was a victory.
Quarterbak Maddex McMillen and receiver Keynan Cook left their marks on Flying Eagles football in a 48-35 loss at Class AAA No. 12 George Washington.

McMillen, who was 25-of-40 for 283 yards and two touchdowns, has 235 pass completions on the year. He surpassed the record of 215 previously shared by Phil Culicerto and Andrew Johnson.
Nate Grayton returned an interception 50 yards for a touchdown to give Woodrow Wilson a 7-0 lead less than a minute into the game, and Leontrae Smith returned a fumble 60 yards for a touchdown to open the second-half scoring.
