Key region game for both schools at Tommy Richardson Stadium
A short run for a touchdown by Darius Jones was about the only highlight for the Camden Lions in a 49-6 loss on the road to Huntingdon Friday. That score was set up by two key pass completions, of 18 yards to Derek Poole and a 46-yard completion to Mason Howard.
By the time Camden got on the scoreboard the Mustangs had built a 28-0 lead on some quick-strike offensive play.
The Lions (2-2) now regroup and prepare for an important region contest as they host the 1-3 Cheatham County Cubs this Friday.
“This being a region game makes it extra important,” said Camden head coach William Blow.
