GALESBURG — The Humboldt Middle School football team trampled Galesburg Middle School Thursday night, 52-0.
The Cubs (2-0) won their second game of the season by shutting out the Timberwolves and scoring seven touchdowns on the ground.
The ground attack was led by Humboldt’s Truman Gryzbowski’s three touchdowns and 35 rushing yards. Remington Strickler added 44 yards, Collin Cook had 38 yards and Karsyn Kaufman chipped in with 30 rushing yards.
Gavin Gunderman and Ty Shaughnessy also contributed in the rushing attack with five and three yards, respectively.
“Galesburg had only 13 players and played real tough, and we wish them well the rest of the season,” said Humboldt head coach Matt Jennings.
The defense was led by Kage Daniels and Strickler, both of whom came down with multiple tackles, sacks and a lone fumble recovery.
Humboldt will host Eureka on Thursday at 6 p.m.
