Cornerstone Christian School coach Tim Smith spent the second half of a 53-26 win over Lyman Ward in an AISA Class 1A, Region 1 game Sept. 16 building his team’s depth.

“We played a lot of young kids tonight,” Smith said. “They work hard at practice, too.”

B.J. Smith returned the game’s opening kickoff 95 yards for a touchdown and the Chargers never looked back in the road victory.

Dalton Lodge, Ronezz Stevens, Auston Wingard, Adrian Young, Sterling Reither and Hagan Joiner each scored a touchdown in the Cornerstone Christian victory.

The Chargers will take next week off before facing Jackson Academy in one of the top AISA Class 1A, Region 1 games of the season.
