The Corvian Community Cardinals will take on the Ballantyne Ridge Wolves at 7:00 p.m. on Monday. Ballantyne Ridge took a loss in their last game and will be looking to turn the tables on Corvian Community, who comes in off a win.
Corvian Community is looking to give their home crowd another W after opening their season at home back in August. They blew past Harding University 47-8 at home. With the Cardinals ahead 34-0 at the half, the contest was all but over already.
Corvian Community's success was the result of a balanced attack that saw several players step up, but Noah Best led the charge by picking up 59 receiving yards and a touchdown, while also rushing for 46 yards. Cam Johnson was another key rusher, rushing for 38 yards and two touchdowns.
Another reason for the win was Corvian Community's imposing defense, which managed to get into the backfield for eight sacks. The heavy lifting was done by Jayden Summers and Adrian Scott who racked up four sacks between them. Summers also put in work on the defensive side of the ball, picking up two sacks and making ten total tackles (2.0 for loss).
Meanwhile, Friday just wasn't the day for Ballantyne Ridge's offense. They were beaten by South Pointe 63-0 on Friday. While losing is never fun, the Wolves can't take it too hard given the team's big disadvantage in MaxPreps' football rankings in their respective home states (they are ranked 378th in North Carolina, while the Stallions are ranked 17th in South Carolina).
