TAMPA - Bradenton Christian blocked a punt and returned it for a touchdown and got two TD receptions from Colton Goodwin en route to the 23-0 victory Friday against host Cambridge.

Cambridge's best chance to score came in the third quarter as it drove 75 yards before failing to convert on fourth down.

Cambridge coach John Kelly said he challenged his defense after an unsatisfactory first half, and the team responded by yielding just three points in the final two quarters. Middle linebacker Logan McDougall was the standout defensive player for Cambridge, leading the team with eight tackles.

Cambridge Christian plays at Lakeland Santa Fe on Friday.
