The Cedar Park Christian football team has now matched its win total for the entire 2014 season in its first two games. The Eagles earned their second win the season with a 51-22 victory against Springbank Community High School from Calgary in Canada at Redmond High School on Friday.
The Eagles dominated the first quarter on the legs of Josiah Sergeant. The Cedar Park junior capped the Eagles’ first drive by running the ball into the end zone from three-yard out. Then, on the ensuing possession, picked off a Springbank pass and ran it 34 yards into the end zone, giving Cedar Park a 14-0 lead.
The Eagles extended the lead to 24-0 heading into the second quarter on a Jack Flynn 35-yard touchdown run and a Bradley Cumley’s 35-yard field goal.
Sergeant got back in the end zone to start the second quarter, returning a punt 71 yards for a touchdown.
Springbank scored its first points on the ensuing possession, a seven-yard touchdown pass but the momentum was firmly on the Eagles’ side of the field as Cedar Park kept running. The Eagles scored again on a Payton Nelson 39-yard touchdown run. The team added a 38-yard Cumley field goal before halftime to take a 41-7 lead.
Springbank showed some life during the second half but it wasn’t enough. Cumley hit a 27-yard field goal during the third quarter and Sergeant scored on an electrifying 84-yard run play during the fourth quarter to cap the scoring.
Sergeant finished the game with 105-yards rushing and four touchdowns.
Next up for the Eagles is an important league game against South Whidbey at 7 p.m. on Saturday.
