The 7th grade Varsity volleyball team took on Cedarcrest middle school yesterday at their home court. The Spartans started out slow losing the first set 13-25. The girls pulled their game together and won the next two sets to take home the win! Great serves we’re made by Hallie D, Emily A, Anika T, and Grace P. Grace F. has some amazing blocks and hits at the net. Gentry S. and Kameron M. did a great job passing in the back row. Next Monday the girls will take on Post Middle School at their home court. Great job ladies- way to start the season off strong!
Good Morning Spartan Fans. Last night your 8th Grade Varsity Basketball team lost a close game by a final of 63-60 to Cedarcrest Middle School. The team played hard but lost the rebounding battle which cost them a chance to pull out the victory. The team was led in scoring by Tanner G. and Luke L., who each had 12 points and the 11 points of Max M. Jace C. played a solid game off the bench with 8 points as did Judd R. and Isaac P. who each scored 5 points on the night in their varsity debuts. The Spartans are again playing at home on Monday at 4:00. Come on out to the Spartan Dome and cheer on your Spartans!
