The “Holy War” between Kapaun Mount Carmel and Bishop Carroll lived up to the hype, as the game set a record for the largest crowd at Riverfront Stadium, which is the home of the Wichita Wind Surge.
Over 8,000 fans turned out to watch Carroll beat Kapaun 26-21. Previously, the record was over 7,700 last summer for the Wind Surge’s game against Tulsa on August 20.
Three more football games are scheduled to be played at Riverfront Stadium: Wichita West vs. Wichita Northwest on October 14, Dodge City vs. Garden City on October 15 and Wichita West vs. Wichita South on October 21.
