Back-to-back weeks on the road proved to be no problem for the Boyd Buchanan football team.
The Buccaneers headed home Friday night with their first shutout of the year while remaining unbeaten halfway through the regular season.
The Buccaneers won 31-0 at Chattanooga Christian School, with TSSAA Division II-AA’s second-ranked team improving to 5-0 overall and 3-0 in East Region play with an open date ahead before a visit from league co-leader Knoxville Grace, which is ranked fifth.
At CCS (1-4, 0-2), Boyd Buchanan got another strong showing from a ground attack led by David Green, who carried the ball seven times for 80 yards and two touchdowns. The senior’s contributions carried over to defense, where he intercepted two passes.
“David Green is one of the better football players in the state of Tennessee, there’s no doubt about that,” Boyd Buchanan coach Gary Rankin said. “I’m not saying he’s the best, but when you talk about great football players in the state of Tennessee, David Green’s name has to be mentioned.”
