The No.4-ranked Glenwood Gators had their best performance on the road this season as the Gators shut out No. 5 Fort Dale Academy on Friday, 28-0.

Cody Dykes was the spark for the Glenwood offense in the first half, running for two touchdowns to stake Glenwood to a 14-0 lead. Dykes' first score was for 54 yards. He also added a 1-yard plunge in the second quarter. Dykes finished with 80 yards on 10 runs.

Marcus Woods was the leading rusher for the Gators (6-1). He totaled 108 total yards on 16 carries, including a third-quarter touchdown. Overall, the Gators offense rolled up 281 total yards, with 249 of those coming on the ground.

The Gators defense finished off the night as Maurice Crawford, Glenwood's 6-foot-2 245-pound tackle, picked up a fumble and ran it in 54 yards for the final touchdown.

Fort Dale dropped to 5-2 with the loss.
