A Season-Best Performance from Darren Goodman Leads Redding Christian over Fall River

He is becoming a predictor of Redding Christian's success: when he posts at least 80 receiving yards the team is 2-1 (and 1-3 when he doesn't).
Redding Christian has been performing well recently as they've won three of their last four matches, which provided a massive bump to their 3-4 record this season. Goodman and Redding Christian will head out on the road to take on Etna at 7:30 p.m. on Friday.
