Cascade was able to notch their first victory of the season over the Hornets powered by their offensive line and Senior Liam Farmer. Cadets fell down 7-0 late in the 1st quarter, but Freshman Brady Trebley found Senior Liam Farmer in the flats for a 34 yard touchdown pass to take a 8-7 lead. Cadets would not give up the lead after that point. Cadets largest lead came on the game sealing touchdown run by Senior Liam Farmer late in the 4th quarter making it 28-13. Cadets made history Friday Night as the 1st team to beat 4A Beech Grove since joining the Indiana Crossroads Conference. Cascade was 0-3 in the previous 3 attempts. Scecina hosted Speedway pulling away late in the 4th quarter topping the Sparkplugs 28-7. Cadet Notes Cascade plays with a young team as they continue the 2022 season, but some key leaders are back and eager for more. Liam Farmer, Walker, Van Ness and Devon Weigle lead the 2022 Cadets through the tough ICC schedule at hand. All three players return as two way players on offense and defense. Wyatt Nohren, Damien Appleby and Duncan White look to play key roles on both sides of the field. Cadets are off to a much better start this year for the 2022 football season. Cascade has passed for 70 yards more than they have this year than last year in the first two games and 137 yards more on the ground. Look for the Cadets to lean heavily on the ground game to open up the pass attack. Farmer already has 258 rushing yards and 3 touchdowns through the 1st two games of the season. Cadets lean heavily on the starting offensive lineman to set the tone up front.
