Coming out of the half, the Indians would add another score on a huge 58-yard scamper by Devonte Robertson, while the Indians once again converted the twopoint play.

The Indians held a 16-6 lead over the visiting Bulldogs going into the final quarter of play.

The Indians continued to pile on Waller with a 34-yard touchdown run by QB Tyler Spencer to put up another score; after another two-point conversion, Cleveland led 24-6.

Cleveland put up one more score, and kicker Erik Cruz booted the extra point to go up by a final of 31-6.

The Indians ended the night with a combined 468 yards of total offense, seven ball carriers combining for 349 yards on 40 carries for an 8.7-yard average.

The Indians will travel to Magnolia West for a big district matchup Friday night and a 7 pm start time.
