Southeast of Saline handled their business and then some on Friday night, handing the Lyons Lions a 66-0 beatdown to celebrate homecoming in style.
With this win, the Trojans move to 5-0 on the year and 1-0 in district play, while Lyons falls to 1-4/0-2.
As expected, Southeast put on a show on both sides of the ball, racking up 542 yards of total offense, and scoring 60 of their 66 points in the first half.
Gannon Jacobson started the show with a 7-yard touchdown pass to Tucker Thaxton and a 14-yard touchdown run, bookending a 5-yard Amarion Holub score.
In the second quarter, Jacobson would four more touchdowns, including two through the air to Kaden Barragen and Kanyon Douglas, and two long runs of 44 and 64.
Up 60-0 at the half, SES emptied out its bench, giving their second and third stringers an opportunity in this varsity bout.
LaVone Hopkins capitalized on his chance, punching in the day's final score on a 4-yard rush from the red zone.
Gannon Jacobson was the star of the show, completing 5-13 passes for 125 yards and three touchdowns and rattling off 207 more yards and three additional scores on the ground.
Southeast will travel to Hillsboro (2-3) next week for a bonus Trojan War, while Lyons returns home to face 0-5 Nickerson.
