Cane Ridge’s defense was dominant during Friday night’s homecoming contest against Region 6-5A foe Glencliff.

The Ravens won their third straight region game in blowout fashion, knocking off the Colts 45-0.

Glencliff (2-6, 0-5) was held to 19 yards of total offense.

“Cane Ridge was a lot faster than we thought,” Glencliff coach Brandon Easley said.

The Ravens (6-2, 3-2) wasted no time getting started, scoring on their first two drives (65 and 24 yards) to take a 14-0 lead. From there the Ravens defense set the pace.
