DeShawn Smith returned a punt 68 yards midway through the first quarter to give Blackman the winning points in a 10-2 decision over Smyrna Friday night on the Blaze home field.

Blackman advances to 3-0 on the year and has still not surrendered a point on defense. Smyrna's points came when Deon Meadows blasted through to nail a Blaze runner in the end zone early in the first quarter after the Bulldogs had pinned Blackman deep in its own territory.

The Blaze has scored 94 points in their first two wins but faced an equally tough defense from Smyrna in the first meeting between the two schools since former Bulldog coach Phillip Shadowens, who directed Smyrna to back-to-back state championships two years ago, took the Blaze top position earlier this year.

Oakland blanked neighbor and rival Siegel, 20-0, while Riverdale powered past La Vergne in the first night of district play in Class 6A. Oakland and Riverdale are both 2-1.

Two winless area teams in Class 1A posted their first wins at home as Eagleville hammered Community, 41-0, and Middle Tennessee Christian School rolled past Moore County, 30-7.
