The Manteca Jr. Timberwolves junior varsity pummeled the Tracy Raiders 40-0 Saturday in the  

Delta Youth Football League South Conference Championship at Sierra High’s Daniel Teicheira Memorial Stadium.

Marcelo Morales (eight carries, 98 yards) scored on runs of 1 yard and 53 yards and on a 65- yard reception from Luke Weaver (8 for 13 passing, 168 yards). Weaver also had touchdown throws of 40 yards to Jason Seabron and 13 yards to Alonzo Drew (four receptions, 52 yards). Alijah Cota (seven carries, 50 yards) scored on a 30-yard run. 

Due in part to the effort of the offensive line of Dylan Gulseth, J.J. Garcia, Josh Lewellen, Paul Gaines and Jessica Perea, Manteca racked up more than 350 yards of offense.

Gannon Anderson had 12 tackles for the Jr. Timberwolves. Cota added 10 stops, Seabron seven, Niko Nunez five, Drew (interception) and Turon McQuarters three apiece and Marcelo Morales two. 

Undefeated Manteca will face the 12-0 North Stockton Bengals in the Super Bowl at 2 p.m. on Sunday at West High in Tracy.
