FROM STAFF REPORTS

Cornerstone Christian School racked up more than 400 rushing yards for the second week in a row in a 31-0 win Sept. 24 over Flint Hill Christian.

Josh Anderson led the Chargers’ rushing attack with 191 rushing yards and two touchdowns on 16 carries.

Chase Crumpton added 122 rushing yards and three touchdowns on six carries.

Clayton Halbert added 91 rushing yards on 14 carries for Cornerstone, which didn’t have any passing yards.

Cornerstone coach Tim Smith said the Chargers changed back to a Wing-T based offense after an experiment with the spread offense resulted in an 0-3 start.

The Chargers (2-3) won their second game in a row with the victory over Flint Hill.

“We went back to the wing and it’s made us better,” Smith said. “We got back to doing what we do best. We’re trying to get better every week.”

Halbert led the Chargers with 13 tackles. Anderson added 11 tackles. Eric Braun contributed eight tackles.

Hagan Joiner picked off a Flint Hill pass in the victory.

Cornerstone will play host to Jackson Academy in an AISA Class 1A, Region 2 contest Oct. 1.
