Cardinals defeat Woodridge Athletic Association Rangers in Pony Association Championships.

The Darien Youth Club Champion Cardinals recently defeated the Woodridge Athletic Association Champion Rangers in the Greater DuPage County Pony Association Championship Mustang Division Game by a score of 12 to 5. 

Coaches said the Cardinals came out on top with a great team effort from all its players. The team won the DYC Championship when they defeated the Padres 12 to 7. 

Head coach Joe Wasler and assistant coaches Mike Tirrito and David Leatherwood said the Cardinals worked hard all season and eventually swept the playoffs and won the championship game. During their playoff run, a different player would step up in every game and get a key hit or make a big defensive play.
