The Wayne County Cardinals enter their bye week with a 3-4 overall record and a 1-0 mark in District 7 play after picking up a 26-20 victory over Lincoln County last Friday. The win snapped a two-game losing streak and kept the Cardinals in the district race with three regular-season games remaining.
Wayne County opened the season with back-to-back losses to Somerset and West Jessamine before turning things around with consecutive victories over Bell County and Madison Southern. The Cardinals then dropped games to South Laurel and Eastern before earning the district win over Lincoln County. Through seven games, Wayne County has scored 138 points while allowing 215.
The Cardinals return to action next Friday night when they travel to Russell County for another district matchup. Wayne County will then host state powerhouse Boyle County on October 23 before closing out the regular season at home against North Laurel on October 30.
Z93 Sports will have the broadcast for the October 30th game against North Laurel, while WFLW will have the broadcast of the Russell County & Boyle County games on October 16th & 23rd.
