On the road for the first time this season, the Chippewa Falls Cardinals (1-1, 0-0 Big Rivers Conference) fell behind early against the Evergreens (2-0, 0-0 Valley Football Association), but took full advantage of an errant pass to tie the game at seven.
Late in the second quarter, DC Everest punched in a go-ahead score, but gave momentum right back to the Cards after the half with yet another interception, this one returned for a touchdown to tie the game at 14. After that turnover, however, the home team dominated time of possession and pulled away for the non-conference victory.
Senior DB Jack Zwiefelhofer played a whale of a game, recording two interceptions, the first leading to the only Chi-Hi points of the first half, and the second a pick six.
