The Ballantyne Ridge Wolves will hit the road for the first time this season to face off against the Corvian Community Cardinals at 7:00 p.m. on Monday.
Ballantyne Ridge's offense might be in the hot seat on Monday considering what happened against South Pointe on Friday. They were beaten by the Stallions 63-0. 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).
Meanwhile, Corvian Community gave their fans exactly what they wanted out of a home opener back in August. They blew past Harding University 47-8 at home. The Cardinals pushed the score to 47-0 by the end of the third, a deficit the Rams cut but never quite recovered from.
Corvian Community got their win on the backs of several key players, but it was Noah Best out in front who picked up 59 receiving yards and a touchdown, and also rushed for 46 yards. Cam Johnson was in the mix as well, providing Corvian Community with 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 didn't just play on offense: he also picked up two sacks and made ten total tackles (2.0 for loss).
