STEPHENVILLE, Texas (AP) — Kody Wilstead passed for 350 yards and a touchdown, ran for another and Dixie State forced five turnovers upending Tarleton State 26-14 in a clash of Division I newcomers.

The aptly named Trailblazers never trailed against Tarleton State, forging ahead 10-0 after barely more than a quarter. After the Texans cut the lead to 10-7 with an Ryheem Skinner 1-yard score, Wilstead found Chase Hess for 43 yards, pushing the lead back to 10 points at halftime.

Skinner rushed for 197 yards on 31  carries to lead the Texans.

Hess, a tight end, led all receivers with 98 yards on five catches.
