Football: Hard-Fought Wins and Hard Hits Kick Off The Cardinal Season

September 8, 2022
Tuesday’s football game had us all at the edge of our seats with a 7th-grade score of Mclean – 6 and Wedgewood – 0 and an amazing 8th Grade score of Mclean – 14 and Wedgewood – 0. Both our 7th and 8th-grade teams made the first play of course, and although the teams were both good sports, we had 2 injuries and 2 minor injuries
From cheerleader Alexis Duron’s perspective:
“Although I could not see it because I was cheering for the crowd, I saw a glimpse of what happened, I saw someone being tackled and they weren’t able to get up.“
8th grade player, John Paul Pritchett, said, “winning felt exhilerating. I knew we could do it from the start if we really put our minds to it.”
