| Winning Wildcats |
"We are one."
That was the slogan branded on the shirt of every coach, and each of the 200-plus fans who came to watch the River Ridge Wildcats step onto the football field for the first time as a stand-alone team on Aug. 27. The same slogan the team used in warm-ups. The same slogan they broke their huddles with. The same slogan the fans cheered, hundreds of voices in unison, as their team secured their first ever victory against the Durand Bulldogs.
