The Cardinals are now at 5-0 and setting first in their district after a challenging game against the CWC Renegades last Friday, winning 24-14 at Chambers. The Cardinals struck first with a 15-yard touchdown pass from Aidan Hedstrom to Dalton Alder and Gabe Pribil ran in the two-point conversion. The Renegades, who always play the Cardinals tough, answered back with a 50-yard touchdown run by Jackson Waldo. Cole Duba hit Waldo on a 29-yard touchdown pass and then Duba ran in the two-point conversion to lead the Cardinals at the end of the first quarter 14-8. The Cards and Renegades battled in the second, keeping each other out of the end zone, and the Renegades led 14-8 at the half. In the third, Hedstrom hit Isaac Everitt for a seven-yard touchdown, and Hedstrom ran in the conversion to tie the game.
