Updated: March 22, 2011 5:26PM

Trailing 3-0 Prospect scored 28 unanswered points en route to a convincing 62-24 win over Wheeling on Friday night at Prospect.

"This is kind of a fun night for people who come out to one or two games a year," said Prospect quarterback Steve Dazzo, who ran for four touchdowns and threw for two more scores. "Our offense isn't missing anything right now. We have playmakers all over the field and an offensive line that makes holes anybody can run through.''

Dazzo (12 carries, 128 yards) scored on runs of 39, 30, 30 and 11 yards. He also completed 7 of 13 passes for 168 yards, including touchdown passes of 46 yards to Nick Czerniak and 10 yards to Sam Frasca.

Frank DePalma rushed 15 times for 121 yards and added a pair of touchdown runs (70, 10 yards) for the Knights.

No. 20 Prospect (7-1, 3-0 Mid-Suburban East) won its sixth straight game, scoring all nine times they had the football. Prospect amassed 500 yards of total offense.

Quarterback Tyler Brady (13-for-24, 182 yards, 2 touchdowns) led Wheeling (1-6, 0-3) with 135 yards rushing on 15 carries.
