King Gardner's Big Game Leads Donelson Christian Academy over Clarksville Academy
King Gardner was instrumental in extending Donelson Christian Academy's winning streak to three on Friday. Gardner did his part (and then some), rushing for 136 yards and two touchdowns on only 12 carries for the 'W'. His rushing production has been exceptional recently as that marked his third straight game with at least 109 rushing yards dating back to last season.
Donelson Christian Academy pushed their record up to 7-1 with the victory, which was their seventh straight at home dating back to last season. Gardner and Donelson Christian Academy will have some time to savor their win since their next game is a little ways off: they'll take on Grace Christian Academy at 7:00 p.m. on October 25th.
