Grove City’s Jaxyn Wilson scored five times on the ground on Saturday afternoon, vaulting the Eagles past neighboring rival Slippery Rock 42-7 in a District 10 Region 4 matchup.

Following a scoreless first frame, Wilson punched the ball in twice — an 11-yarder and a 7-yarder — to give Grove City (3-1) a 14-0 lead in the second. Fred Campagna’s 8-yard touchdown pass to Cooper Glass cut the Eagles’ lead in half before halftime, but the Rockets (1-3) allowed 28 unanswered points in the final 24 minutes of play.

Clayton Martin’s third-quarter 25-yard touchdown reception from Lucas McCreadle was the Eagles’ lone passing score of the day.

Wilson finished with 158 yards rushing on 23 carries. Slippery Rock lost possession on a fumble three times in the matchup and was limited to 109 yards of total offense.

The Rockets return to action against Sharpsville on Friday.
