Zach Reynolds opened the scoring off a corner kick in the 10th minute, and Zach Peterson scored twice off deflections for Prosper.

“Our game plan was to go out as high pressure as we could, and that paid dividends in the first half,” Prosper coach Ryan Rogers said.

“It really set the tone early,” Wakeland coach Rusty Oglesby said. “We hit them with that shock factor in the first 15 minutes.”
