BROCKWAY — Christian Lezzer accounted for six total touchdowns as Clearfield rolled to its fourth-straight District 9 Class AAA title with a 51-7 win over Bradford Friday.

Lezzer, a Boston College commit, scored on touchdown runs of 7, 29, 14 and 27, while also adding a pair of passing TDs, a 14-yard strike to tight end Wyatt Flanagan and a 12-yard score to his younger brother Ryan.

The Bison (10-0) capitalized on three first quarter turnovers by the Owls to build a 30-0 lead after the first quarter.

The Bison, who beat Bradford 49-0 in 2012's championship game, also got a second-half touchdown on the ground from Bryce Craft.

Bradford broke the shutout with a three-yard TD run by freshman Tim Schuster that was set up by  a 59-yard pass from Zach Bartlebaugh to Sean Siffrinn.

Clearfield moves on the the District 5-6-8-9 sub-regional, while Bradford ends its season with  a record of 2-8.
