The Cambridge Bears will challenge the Kell Longhorns at 7:30 p.m. on Friday. Cambridge knows how to get points on the board -- the team has finished with 31 points or more in their past eight games -- so hopefully Kell likes a good challenge.
Last Friday, Cambridge beat Centennial 46-39. Given the Bears' advantage in MaxPreps' Georgia football rankings (they are ranked 31st, while the Knights are ranked 134th), the result wasn't entirely unexpected.
A big part of Cambridge's win came down to the chemistry between Weston Taylor and his top target Craig Dandridge. Taylor threw for 393 yards and three touchdowns while picking up 16.4 yards per attempt while Dandridge picked up 221 receiving yards and three touchdowns. Dandridge torched the secondary when he pulled down a catch that went for 72 yards. A healthy portion of that aerial production (106 yards to be exact) also went to Hudson Cocchiara.
Cambridge didn't go easy on the quarterback and picked off two passes before the game was over. The picks came courtesy of Brennan Counts and Dandridge. Counts is also on a roll when it comes to total tackles, as he's now made six or more in the last five games he's played dating back to last season.
Meanwhile, winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Kell). They walked away with a 61-49 victory over Centennial on Friday.
Cambridge pushed their record up to 8-0 with the win, which was their eighth straight on the road dating back to last season. As for Kell, they now have a winning record of 5-4.
Cambridge ended up a good deal behind Kell in their previous meeting back in October of 2023, losing 40-21. Can Cambridge avenge their defeat or is history doomed to repeat itself? We'll find out soon enough.
