After being on the receiving end of two blowouts, Hinds Community College finally got to deliver one.

Micah Zanders threw three touchdown passes — two of them to Ra’Meik Wallace — and Hinds’ defense posted its first shutout since 2011 as it beat Southwest Mississippi 27-0 Thursday night in Summitt.

Kevin Ratliff led the defensive effort with 11 tackles and a fumble recovery, while former Vicksburg High star Kareeme Butler had an interception. Hinds held Southwest (1-2, 0-1 MACJC South) to 254 yards of total offense.

Zanders was 14-of-25 passing for 152 yards and three touchdowns, and no interceptions for Hinds (1-2, 1-0). He threw a 7-yard touchdown pass to Stephen Guidry in the first quarter. In the second quarter, he hit Wallace with a 7-yard TD pass to cap a 13-play, 92-yard drive to make it 14-0. Zanders hit Wallace again in the second half, for a 12-yard score, and Spencer Cole booted two field goals.

Zanders also rushed for 85 yards on 13 carries, and as a team Hinds had 245 rushing yards. The Eagles had 397 yards of total offense.

Nakia Trotter Jr. had 98 rushing yards for Southwest.

Hinds will return home next Thursday to host Pearl River. The annual homecoming game will begin at 7 p.m.
