Both teams entered with identical 2-1 record but its was Lynn Camp that left with a 3-1 mark, thanks to key defensive plays combined with the running skills of DJ Wren and the blocking of the Wildcats\u2019 offensive linemen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Wren once again dominated, running for more than 250 yards on the ground while finding pay dirt four times.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cI\u2019m so proud of these kids,\u201d Lynn Camp coach Darrell Hendrix said. \u201cThis was our best performance this season. DJ Wren had another great night. Darren Campbell and Thomas Jones had great night running the ball. Our defense forced three turnovers. Conner Mabe and Ethan Chafin are doing a great blocking the edge. Our offensive line had their best game of the season. This was just pure determination. These kids are motivated right now.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
