CLARKSVILLE, TN (CLARKSVILLE NOW) – The Kenwood Knights traveled to Northwest High School for the Vikings’ homecoming game and a Region 7-5A matchup on Friday. It was a defensive struggle early, but after Kenwood’s offense got going, they rolled, with quarterback Christian James accounting for four total touchdowns en route to a 31-0 win for the Knights.
The two teams traded punts early, with the first quarter coming to a close scoreless. However, to kick off the second quarter, Knights quarterback Christian James broke free for a touchdown run, then found Chris Simpson on the next drive two minutes later for a touchdown through the air.
Before the first half was over, James found Jayde Davis in the corner of the endzone for another score, and the Knights had scored three touchdowns in six minutes to hold a 19-0 lead at the half.
“We got our quarterback back from injury, and that was huge,” said Kenwood head coach Jarhett Snead. “James is a doggone good ball player, and we’re glad to have him back. We’re getting healthy, and that’s so important at this point in the season. Northwest did a good job running the ball, and our defense bent, but we never broke.”…
