After being down 51-0 at halftime, there was a running clock in the seconds half. There are a few things the Spartans need to work on and Quarterback Sheldon Stewart says, “Practice needs to be better and working harder at practice will help us improve. Despite the final score of 58-7, playing in the Homecoming game is always exciting. Senior Derrick Keys says, “I’m excited to compete and it being at home in front of the home crowd.”
