10/18/24 Football: Chippewa Falls 35, Menomonie 7

Looking to cement a playoff appearance and improve their seeding, the Chippewa Falls Cardinals (6-3, 4-3 Big Rivers Conference) knew they'd face a stiff test in their perennial rival, the Mustangs (5-4, 3-4 BRC), a team they had not bested since 2015, including no regular season wins since 2008.

The Cards started hot, scoring in the game's first minute, and in a game that saw impact plays in all three phases, they not only beat their rivals, they dominated them. In a contest that earned head coach Chuck Raykovich a postgame dousing of Gatorade, Chi-Hi pitched a shutout until the 4th quarter, put a running clock on the Mustangs, and vaulted themselves into the postseason. 


WOGO "RadioActive" Award Watch:
Senior FB/LB Drake Daken was absolutely electric, setting up the game's opening score with a 62-yard run, and later scoring himself from 56 yards out. Senior RB Jackson LeMay and fellow senior RB Jackson Bohland each scored their 11th touchdown of the season, and Bohland later made it a dozen scores on the year. Senior DL Brayden Hagmann had two monster sacks in the game, headlining a stellar effort by the Cards' D.
