SPRING VALLEY, WI – Sometimes game plans work and sometimes they don’t, but the pair of games the Cardinals played last week had two very different game plans and the team executed them to perfection in a pair of tight wins last week.
The Cardinals had a plan to handle one of the best players in the state against Cumberland last Tuesday, then worked together in a different way to handle the Elk Mound press for the win on the road to remain unbeaten in the Dunn-St. Croix Conference.
The pair of wins improved Valley to 10-3 overall and 5-0 in the conference, tied with Durand for first place. The Cardinals hosted the Panthers this past Tuesday, with results in next week’s paper. The Cardinals will also host Elmwood-Plum City tonight. Valley will also play at Osseo-Fairchild next Tuesday and at Boyceville on Thursday, January 25, 2024.
