Senior Drew Barker led the way for Fairmont with 115 yards and two touchdowns on the ground. Junior Kamron Payne pitched in with the first 10 carries of his career for 76 yards and a touchdown.

Tyrell Lewis led Wayne with 224 yards passing and three touchdowns (two pass, one rush). Senior RJ Mukes III racked up 216 all-purpose yards (89 on nine receptions) on 15 touches.
