MORELAND - Snake River quarterback C.J. Toulouse didn't carry the ball much, but when he did, the results were usually good.

The Panthers signal caller rushed for 113 yards on four carries while adding a 40-yard touchdown pass, and Snake River routed American Falls 48-0 on Friday night.

"He set the tone for us," Panthers coach Jeff Dalley said. "Our line did a good job blocking, and Toulouse got loose on a couple long runs. Then we just mixed it up. Everybody got to touch the ball."

Jake Reece ran for two touchdowns of his own, caught Toulouse's TD pass and threw a 71-yard scoring strike of his own for Snake River.

The Panthers are now 5-2 overall and 2-0 in 3A Fifth District play. They'll travel to Marsh Valley with the league title on the line next week. The Beavers dropped to 1-6 and 0-2 and will play Bear Lake with a playoff berth at stake next.
