And that doesn't even account for a third TD run by Dwayne Wood and two scoring TDs by QB Marcus Johnson, all before halftime.

The score was 49-0 before the Homecoming pageantry halftime show.

Johnson kept the scoring going with a 10-yard touchdown run of his own in the opening drive of the third quarter.

Johnson got things going for the Cudas with a 52-yard TD pass to Clark in New Smyrna Beach's initial drive. The second TD pass from Johnson was hauled in by Diamonte Mitchell for 27 yards. Dwayne Wood added to the offensive fie power with a 5-yard touchdown run in the first quarter to make it 49-0.

Thanks to the Cudas' strong offensive line, Dixon found easy holes, bursting for touchdown runs of 1, 10, and 20 yards. The junior was equally explosive on the defensive side of the ball, picking off a pass and taking it 31 yards into the end zone less less than 2 minutes in the first half.

Deltona Wolves could not get going on offense en route to a 56-0 loss to NSB.Headline Surfer photos by Serafina Frederick / The Deltona Wolves could not generate any offense against the Cudas en route to a 56-0 loss in a winless season.

In the second half, winless Deltona could do nothing on offense against the Cudas' bruising defense, holding the Wolves' offense to a measly 27 yards, and with the Cudas' strong ground game on offense, it was simply a matter of running down the clock. 

The Cudas, went to 8-0 with the win.
