The Wildcats drove 57 yards in 11 plays on its opening possession, capped by a 5-yard touchdown pass from senior Jett Wahlmeier to junior Kade Mitchell (Mason Becker extra point).

Hayden added a pair of TDs in the second quarter, with Wahlmeier hitting senior Jensen Schrickel for a 37-yard TD pass (Becker kick) and Wahlmeier hitting Schrickel for a 12-yard score (Becker kick).

Broderick Desch capped an eight-play, 66-yard Hayden scoring drive with a 1-yard on the Wildcats' first possession of the second half (Becker kick) to give Hayden a 28-0 advantage.

Holton got on the scoreboard later in the third quarter on a 46-yard Kyler Jackson run (kick good) before Hayden's Mason Becker ended the scoring with a 21-yard field goal.

Wahlmeier went 15 of 27 for 150 yards and three touchdowns.

Mitchell carried the ball 13 times for 73 yards while Desch had 15 carries for 62 yards.
