The Raiders scored their first victory of the season.
After fumbling the ball away on the opening kickoff, the Raiders turned things around beating the Wingers 41-21.

The Northfield Raiders let a lead slip away Friday night in Shakopee (2-3) and failed to secure their first win of the season, falling to the Sabers 32-29. After Shakopee kicked a field goal with seconds left in the game for the go-ahead score, the Raiders (0-5) tried a little razzle-dazzle on the kick return but fumbled the ball, which Shakopee recovered and marked the end of the game. Northfield led 22-14 at the half after opening up a 15-0 in the first quarter. Shakopee scored in the third quarter and successfully completed a two-point conversation, as the Raiders did following their first touchdown, to knot the game at 22-22. The Raiders went ahead with a touchdown later in the quarter, but the Sabers put up 10 points in the fourth …

A Northfield Raiders football rally came up short for the second time in as many weeks on Friday night at Memorial Field.
A Northfield Raiders football rally came up short for the second time in as many weeks on Friday night at Memorial Field. With four and a half minutes left in the game against visiting Farmington, it looked like Northfield was on their way to their second straight home loss to start the season.
