Tyler Thackerson went 26-of-43 passing for 279 yards but was picked off three times by CAK’s defense, which made Clinton (3-5) earn everything they got.
DeMarea Whitt picked off a pass for Clinton—his third in two games.
CAK’s offense was balanced with 165 yards rushing and 279 yards passing, while the Dragons were one-dimensional with 279 passing yards but only five yards on the ground. Clinton has a bye week next week and returns to action October 23 at Heritage.
