Determan added two more PAT kicks and Tolifson ran in a two-point conversion try as the Warriors took a 63-0 lead into the locker room.
Following a scoreless third quarter, Brody Nachbor ran the ball in from 5 yards out for a 69-0 Wheaton/Herman-Norcross lead.
Ortonville’s lone TD came on a 4 yard run to put the final at 69-6.
The Warriors had 356 (133 passing, 223 rushing) yards of total offense, compared to 141 (39 passing, 102 rushing) for the Trojans.
