Lake-Lehman raced out to a 20-point lead in the first 9:07 and cruised to a 47-14, non-league football victory over visiting Riverside Friday night.
Colby Roberts and Cole Morio each rushed for more than 100 yards in the win. Roberts scored three touchdowns while Morio had a 73-yard touchdown run.
Roberts ran 14 and 37 yards for the first two scores and Mason Konigus added a touchdown for the 20-0 lead.
Noah Parchinski scored on an 8-yard run for Riverside in the second quarter, but Gavin Wallace hit Gavin Paraschak with a 21-yard touchdown pass for Lake-Lehman to give the Black Knights a 27-6 halftime lead.
Roberts ran 7 yards, then Morio broke his touchdown run to invoke the Mercy Rule at 41-6 with 4:36 left in the third quarter.
Joey Gaughan ran 15 yards for a fourth-quarter Riverside touchdown.
Treston Allen rushed 22 yards for the last Lake-Lehman score.
