Football Holds Scrimmage Against Amery; Home Opener is Friday Night

The Cumberland Beavers traveled to Amery last Friday for their annual football scrimmage, while this Friday the Beavers begin the 2025 season with a contest against the Chetek-Weyerhaueser Bulldogs of the Lakeland Conference in Endeavor Stadium beginning at 7:00 p.m.

Coach Jordan Potvin said the scrimmage contained a little good and a little bad. “We battled and I thought our defense looked good against the run. On offense, we have put in a new offense and we are still getting used to our new blocking scheme,” he said.

Expected starting quarterback Troy Majewski suffered an injury during the scrimmage that Potvin hopes will improve by tis Friday. “Otherwise Sophomore Alex LaBlanc will get the nod,” Potvin added. 

The Bulldogs finished 5 and 5 and edged the Beavers 27-20 in last season’s opening game. “Chetek will present a real challenge, but we will be up for it,” Potvin concluded.
