In a highly anticipated matchup, the Rebels took on the Cardinals of Scott County. There was a lot of hype surrounding the game as both teams were ranked within the top 10, Boyle being #1 and the Cardinals being #7. On top of this, social media was focusing on the big game. The Rebs capitalized on their opportunities, beating the Cards 54-21.
The Rebels quarterback, Sage Dawson, had 13 of 15 passes caught, netting 261 yards. Of the Reb’s 223 rushing yards, Avery Bodner ran for 141. Jayce Crow, Austin Bodner, and Demauriah Brown all picked up a loose ball. In Montavin Quisenberry’s outstanding game, he threw a touchdown, ran a touchdown, received a touchdown, and returned a kickoff for a touchdown.
Andrew Carr successfully kicked 6 PATs and saved the Rebels from two Cardinal kickoff returns, making a couple of remarkable tackles. Carr says, “I knew I had to make the tackles; the opportunity was there, and I took it. It always feels good to make a play like that, to make any contribution to the game.”
As the Rebels celebrate their big top-10 win, they will prepare to take down another cardinal team at Taylor County next Friday at 7:30.
