The Trojans are now 4-1.
The scoring onslaught started with the opening kickoff. Jacob Brooks returned the kick for a 78-yard touchdown.
Defensively, the Trojans held Geneseo on their first possession. Then, the Trojan offense took the field.

This drive ended with a 12-yard TD Run by sophomore Ryder Reichert.
After another stop, the Trojans' Junior Running Back Kingston Woods scored from two yards out! Melissa Sawyer's PAT made it 19-0. It stayed 19-0 into the half.
In the second half, the Trojans took advantage of the run game, and QB Brody Heckman threw a play-action pass to Duke Snyder for a 55-yard TD.
Later in the third quarter, Kaden Torres scored from two yards out.
Alexander's final score came in the fourth quarter on an 18-yard run by Reichert.
Defensively, the Trojans completed their third shutout of the season. The defense was led by Victor Kirsch, Dylan Pohl and Jake Smith with four sacks.
