Heritage rushed for 244 yards, led by 67 yards and a touchdown from junior quarterback Nikki Scott, who left the game with an injury in the third quarter.
His replacement, sophomore Khalil Osbin, wasted no time, tossing for a 5-yard touchdown on his first throw, connecting on a slant to Alex Anderson. Kedyn Bolds and Wyatt Scott also added touchdowns for the Timberwolves.
