Highlights: At Laureldale, senior Ben Ortiz ran for four of his five touchdowns and 160 of his 220 yards after halftime and the Muhls (2-0) managed the blowout despite committing 19 penalties totaling 180 yards.

The flags, along with a pair for first-half fumbles by Ortiz, helped the Cougars (0-2) stay in the game, which was tied at 7-all at halftime.

But Muhlenberg used its size dominance up front in the second half, when Ortiz had scoring runs of 2, 1, 23 and 11 yards.
