SPRING VALLEY, WI – The goal of the second game of the Spring Valley football season is to clean up the mistakes and issues that arise from the first game. Well, the Cardinals did just that with a 48-7 win over Chetek-Weyerhaeuser (C-W) here last week.
Valley will open their conference schedule tomorrow night by hosting Colfax, who is coming off a 51-8 loss to Eleva-Strum last week. The Vikings will be looking for their first win of the season against the Cardinals, which may be an uphill task for the winless squad.
The Cardinal faithful were uneasy early in the game when junior Noah Hamley took the opening kickoff right through the Spring Valley kickoff team for a 79-yard touchdown return. The Bulldogs kicked the PAT to take a 7-0 lead just 13 seconds into the game. The highlights for Chetek-Weyerhaeuser ended there as they struggled to move the ball against the Cardinals the rest of the game.
