PRESCOTT, WI – The Baldwin-Woodville Blackhawks secured their second consecutive Middle Border Conference title with a 36-29 win over the Prescott Cardinals on Friday, October 17, 2025, at Laney Field. The victory marks the Blackhawks first undefeated regular season since 1970 (9-0-1) and first perfect regular season since 1963 (8-0).
Baldwin-Woodville kicked off to open the game where Prescott fumbled the opening kickoff but recovered at their own 33-yard line. The Cardinals quickly reached fourth-and-2 near midfield and went for it but were stopped by B-W’s Brady Hanson and James Kropelnicki, forcing a turnover on downs. The Blackhawks took over at midfield, and quarterback Joe Jensen connected with wide receiver Aidan Foster for a 24-yard pass to the Prescott 28-yard line. Shortly after, Jensen found running back Dane Veenendall for an 8-yard touchdown pass. Dane Veenendall added the 2-point conversion to make it B-W 8-0.
Prescott countered with a 55-yard rushing touchdown and successful point-after-try to cut the lead, B-W 8-7. On the first play of the Blackhawks next drive, Jensen connected with WR Luke Janke for a 37-yard gain to the Prescott 16-yard line. Janke then capped the drive with a 4-yard rushing touchdown, but the 2-point attempt was no good, B-W 14-7. Prescott’s next possession ended in a short punt from deep within their own territory, setting B-W up at the Prescott 35-yard line. However, on the first play back on offense, the Blackhawks were intercepted, and Prescott’s offense resumed at their own 3-yard line as the first quarter ended.
