CEDAR FALLS, Iowa (AP) – Brandon Snyder scored two touchdowns and passed for another and No. 1 Inwood West Lyon routed No. 2 Brooklyn BGM 49-7 Thursday to win the Class A state championship.  West Lyon (14-0) dominated on the ground, outrushing BGM 329-48. Snyder ran for 181 yards on just seven carries and completed 4 of 5 passes for another 110 yards.

BGM (13-1), which had been averaging a class-best 53.9 points, was held without an offensive touchdown. The Bears played most of the game without star running back Jack Kline, who came in with 1,811 yards rushing and 49 TDs. After returning an interception 52 yards for the game’s first touchdown, Kline sprained an ankle making a tackle and did not return.
