JACKSONVILLE, Fla. – Clay is the area’s lone flag football team still standing entering the fourth round of the state playoffs.
The Blue Devils used another suffocating defensive performance to knock off visiting White 13-0 in the Region 1-1A final on Tuesday night. Clay (13-1) has posted shutouts in 12 of its 14 games this season. It allowed 14 points to Super 6 No. 1 Fleming Island in its lone defeat this year. Outside of the Golden Eagles, only Stanton has managed to find the end zone against Clay’s ferocious defense.
The Blue Devils advanced to Friday’s state quarterfinal where they travel to face Fort Walton Beach Choctawhatchee.
The Commanders finished their season 16-4.
