9/26/25 Football: Chippewa Falls 35, Superior 0
After a long bus ride north, the Chippewa Falls Cardinals (2-4, 1-3 Big Rivers Conference) came out of the gate strong, garnering a turnover on downs on the game's first drive, then marching down for an early one-score advantage.
The Spartans (0-6, 0-4 BRC), who were celebrating both their Hall of Fame Night and Homecoming, played hard throughout, but could not keep pace with the Cards, who controlled the line of scrimmage in the running game, led by a standout performance from multiple members of their offensive line.
Senior RB/WR Jaylyn Smith was a force to be reckoned with, scoring twice on the ground and a third time on a TD reception, while sophomore LB Ryan Zenner was all over the field on defense, making his presence felt on multiple plays.

And in a related story we hear from Congressman Derrick Van Orden regarding a bill he introduced this week aimed at withholding federal funding from select communities like Eau Claire.

9/19/25 Football: Rice Lake 38, Chi-Hi 22
On Homecoming Night against one of the frontrunners in the conference, the Chippewa Falls Cardinals (1-4, 0-3 Big Rivers Conference) ate up almost half of the first quarter clock on a 12-play drive that staked them to an 8-0 advantage.
The Warriors (5-0, 3-0 BRC), however, answered with a lengthy touchdown drive of their own, setting the tone for the contest. Both teams were able to methodically move the ball on the ground, but the visitors proved a bit stronger, as they took a late two touchdown lead and held the Cards at bay.
Senior Jaylyn Smith returned a kick for a touchdown for the second time this season, while junior Tyler Behnke hit triple digits in rushing yards and scored twice for the Cards.

9/12/25 Football: River Falls 28, Chippewa Falls 12
After falling behind 6-0 after the Wildcats(4-0, 3-0) 14-play TD drive to start the game, the Cards(1-3, 1-2) responded with a terrific drive of their own culminated by a Jaylyn Smith one yard TD run with 2:21 left in the first quarter, tying the game at 6. Later, Sr. LB, Collin Clary, helped lead the way in stopping a River Falls 4th and 1 from the CF 6 yard line, and before the half Tyler Behnke's two yard TD run put the Cards up 12-6 at halftime.
However, the 2nd half belonged to the Wildcats as they mixed run and pass very well on their way to scoring 3 TD's and winning the game 28-12
Jaylyn Smith had another big night running for 60 yards on 12 carries, including a 1-yard TD run, and catching 5 passes for 98 yards. Tyler Behnke also ran for a TD in addition to running for 69 yards on 14 carries.

9/11/25 Football: McDonell 39, Owen-Withee 0
Hosting the defending state champions, the McDonell Macks (4-0, 3-0 North Central - East Conference) were pushed back a bit by the opening Owen-Withee drive, which chewed up nearly half of the first quarter, but after a key stop the Macks immediately drove for the game's opening score and built a four score advantage at the break.
The Blackhawks (2-2, 1-2) refused to go quietly, but could not keep pace with the Macks' balanced offensive game plan and relentless, attacking defense. McDonell worked their way to a running clock and clamped down with key turnovers to preserve the shutout victory.
WOGO "RadioActive" Award Watch:
Senior RB/LB Desian Matthews came alive in the running game, piling up yardage in chunks while also playing a key role on defense. Senior LB Eli Stepp was all over the field on D, and senior QB Cael Holm and junior WR Luke Andersen combined for a trio of touchdowns.

9/5/25 Football: New Richmond 42, Chi-Hi 14
On the road against the defending Big Rivers champs, the Chippewa Falls Cardinals (1-2, 0-1 Big Rivers Conference) overcame an early 14-0 deficit, marching toward a potential tying touchdown at the end of the first half.
The defense of the Tigers (3-0, 1-0 BRC), however, was up to the challenge, halting the Cards' in the red zone to preserve the lead, and then garnering two fumble recoveries early in the second half, leading to 14 unanswered points and propelling New Richmond to a home victory.
Senior Jaylyn Smith piled up the all-purpose yards as he continued to make plays in all three phases of the game, including a 55-yard romp for a touchdown and an absolute circus catch down the sideline.
