COACH GERRY STANFORD’S COMMENTS: “We did a really good job of playing a complete game Friday night. We got early, and that really set up our game. We did a great job on our kickoff coverage, pinning them deep and forcing a turnover once. We did a real good job of executing and creating space.

“We had seven guys score touchdowns. We played well and continued to improve on the things we wanted to do.”
