Cardinals look for win on road against Crescent to break losing streak

Published 7:30pm Thursday, October 18, 2012

The Landrum football team looks to grab a win on the road tonight as they face off against region foe Crescent High School in Iva, S.C.
Cardinal faithfuls need the win after two weeks of moral-lowering shutouts against Chesnee (17-0) and Blacksburg (35-0).
Pulling out a win won’t be easy however as Crescent currently has seven wins and only two losses under its belt. The Tigers hung tough against Blacksburg back in September, narrowly losing 48-42.
Coach Russell Mahaffey said the Cardinals played “sloppy” in its game against Blacksburg last week meaning they would need to make corrections on both offense and defense to win tonight.
LHS’ record stands at 3-5 overall on the season and 3-2 in Region 1-2A play. Tonight’s game starts at 7:30 p.m.
