Foreman was nearly perfect, completing 16-of-19 passes for 221 yards with a touchdown, and he added 16 rushing yards on four carries.
Eason, meanwhile, punished the Glenwood defense for 161 yards on 15 carries with a touchdown.
Aeden Johnson caught seven passes for 64 yards, Malachi McCullough had three receptions for 91 yards, Tristian Howell caught three passes for 43 yards with a touchdown, and Kason Varner grabbed two receptions for 28 yards.
