HAYS – The Hoisington Cardinals took advantage of several big plays in the first half on their way to a 42-0 win over the TMP-Marian Monarchs Friday at Lewis Field Stadium.

It took the Cardinals just six offensive plays to build a 21-0 lead in the first quarter.

Hoisington added three more second quarter scored to build a 42-0 halftime lead and with a running clock in the second half they would go on to win by that score.

Wyatt Pedigo lead all players with 159 yards and two touchdowns on 10 carries. He also added three receptions for 50 yards and one score. Cardinals quarterback Derek Boxberger finished 7-for-12 for 129 yards passing with one touchdown and one interception.
