WILMINGTON, Ohio (WKBN) – Record-setting quarterback Braxton Plunk’s stellar day led number 2 ranked Mount Union to a 69-0 win over Wilmington.

Senior wide receiver Wayne Ruby Jr surpassed the 100-yard mark and ended with two touchdown catches in the win.
The Purple Raiders would score on their first seven possessions on their way to the 69-point route of the Quakers.
