9/29/23 Football: River Falls 28, Chi-Hi 27

On the road once again, and trying to erase the sting of a lopsided loss on Homecoming, the Chippewa Falls Cardinals (2-5, 1-4 Big Rivers Conference) marched right down the field against the Wildcats (5-2, 3-3 BRC), and scored the first touchdown of the night, before River Falls punched back with the next two scores and led 14-7 at the break.

In a back and forth affair that saw three 14-0 scoring runs but neither team ever take the lead by more than seven points, Chi-Hi sparked a sensational comeback in the second half, but fell just short of victory. 

WOGO "RadioActive" Award Watch:
Senior QB Mason Von Haden was brilliant, completing 13 of 19 passes for 165 yards and 4 TDs. Junior WR Jackson Bohland was his favorite target on the night: Bohland's breakout effort was his best game of the season, recording 6 receptions for 104 yards and three touchdowns, including a potentially game-tying 58-yard catch and run on a screen pass in the 4th quarter.

9/22/23 Football: New Richmond 39, Chi-Hi 7

Back at Dorais for Homecoming and fresh off their first conference victory, the Chippewa Falls Cardinals (2-4, 1-3 Big Rivers Conference) went three and out on their first two possessions against the unbeaten and state-ranked Tigers (6-0, 4-0 BRC), who quickly staked themselves to a 12-0 advantage.

The Cards hoped to find a spark with a long touchdown run in the second quarter, but simply could not stop the New Richmond attack, as the Tigers only punted once and dominated time of possession throughout the contest. 

WOGO "RadioActive" Award Watch:
Senior DB Carter Bowe continued his strong play on both defense and special teams, recording multiple tackles and, though one was negated by penalty, two exciting kick returns.

9/15/23 Football: Chi-Hi 36, Eau Claire North 23

After three setbacks in a row, the Chippewa Falls Cardinals (2-3, 1-2 Big Rivers Conference) made the short road-trip south to face the resurgent Huskies (3-2, 2-1 BRC), who were winners of three straight and in a four-way tie for first place in the Big Rivers.

Sparked by a defensive touchdown in the opening minute, Chi-Hi staked themselves a 17-0 advantage, but a resilient North team continued to battle back, coming as close as seven points down the stretch as momentum see-sawed between both squads. In the end, splash plays on special teams made the difference, as the Cards notched their first conference win of 2023.

WOGO "RadioActive" Award Watch:
Senior DB Jack Zwiefelhofer tallied his fourth interception of the season - and second pick-six - as he gave Chi-Hi immediate momentum to start the game. Fellow senior DB Carter Bowe stole the show, however, flipping the field multiple times as a punt returner, and, in the second half, taking not one but two kickoffs to the house.
