CAPE MAY COURT HOUSE – It took a bit of time before the Middle Township High School football team could establish its dominance in its season opener Friday. But once the Panthers overcame some early mistakes, they rolled to a 40-0 victory over Cumberland.

Middle had a handful of big plays called back due to penalties but still managed to take a 13-0 lead into halftime. Middle then exploded for four touchdowns in the second half to pull away.

Remi Rodriguez rushed for 112 yards and two scores, a one-yard touchdown run in the first quarter and a five-yard scamper in the third period.

Shaun Watkins and Zamar Wakefield also ran for scores and Micah McAnaney tossed a 33-yard touchdown pass to Michael Zarfati for Middle.

Middle’s defense conceded only four first downs to Cumberland for the game.
The Panthers travel to Oakcrest next Friday.
