BELOIT - It didn't take Brodhead-Juda long to bounce back from its first loss last week.

The Cardinals racked up 376 total rushing yards and steamrolled Beloit Turner 49-0 Friday, Sept. 13.

Brodhead-Juda senior Derek Turner rushed for 116 yards and scored two touchdowns.

"He (Turner) was a workhorse tonight," Brodhead-Juda coach B.J. Bockhop said.

The Cardinals' defense was just as dominant as the offense, limiting Beloit Turner to just 107 total yards.

Bockhop liked the way the Cardinals responded as they improved to 3-1, 1-0 Rock Valley South.

"We came out and had an attitude all week," Bockhop said. "That first loss didn't sit well with us all week. We came out and responded well."



New Glarus-Monticello 48, Westfield 20

WESTFIELD - New Glarus-Monticello senior Jim Chenoweth rushed for 230 yards and scored three touchdowns to lead the Glarner Knights to their first win 48-20 over Westfield.

New Glarus-Monticello coach Desie Breadon said it wasn't a must-win game even though the Knights (1-3) entered the game without a win.

"We knew we had the ability," Breadon said. "No one was picking us to win. We felt like all the pressure was on them. We wanted to send a message to other teams that we are better than our record."

New Glarus-Monticello senior Casey Severson rushed for more than 100 yards and Gavin Binger also had a big game on the ground as the Knights racked up 467 total rushing yards.

"We said let's get back to our game of running and pounding the ball," Breadon said. "It feels good going into conference with some momentum."
