Adam Edgar caught one pass for 39 yards, Ethan White had three receptions for 27 yards, and Joseph Beidleman had one catch for two yards.
Jake White led the ground attack with 85 yards and two touchdowns on 21 carries.
Beidleman had four yards on three carries and Ethan White and Thrasher each had one yard rushing.
Defensively, Sam Bunch’s six tackles were a team-high, followed by Micah Guttery with five, Jake White with four, Ethan White with three, Miller and Beidleman with two apiece and Thrasher, Owen Pillow and Thomas Kalahar each with one.
