About one hour outside of Milwaukee, Wisconsin, the stage is set for an exciting clash between the Sun Prairie West High School Wolves and Sun Prairie East High School Cardinals.  

They are set to reignite their young but fierce rivalry on September 20th at Bank of Sun Prairie Stadium. This marquee matchup, part of the 21st season of the Great American Rivalry Series, pits the Wolves against the Cardinals in front of a roaring crowd of over 6,000 fans.  

As 2022 marked the inaugural meeting between the two states of the art institutions in the state of Wisconsin, Sun Prairie East remains undefeated, including a dominant 40-7 victory last year. Since the schools split in 2022, they still carry deep-rooted histories within the area, as the West campus now located only minutes away from East at the original Grove Street campus in Sun Prairie, Wisconsin. 

With the Wolves looking to seek their first win and spark positive momentum in the series, the Cardinals aim to continue their dominance over their cross-town rivals.
