MADISON (AP) -- Junior tailback Isaac Tuttle rushed for 195 yards and scored two of his four rushing touchdowns in the third quarter, as Glenwood City exploded in the second half to upend previously unbeaten Potosi, 46-21, to win the WIAA Division 7 championship Thursday at Camp Randall. 

Trailing 14-12 at halftime, the Hilltoppers (11-2) scored on all three third-quarter drives, rushing for touchdowns of 35, 20 and 36. For the quarter, Glenwood City outgained Potosi (12-1) 174-26 and 500-273 for the game.

Potosi advanced to state for the first time averaging 42 points a game. Against Glenwood City, the Chieftains were held to their second-lowest point total of the year.
