McConnellsburg 49 Everett 19. The Spartans traveled to Everett for a conference game on Friday, January 10th, and won every quarter to run away with a 30-point commanding win.
The Spartans put on a 13-point first quarter, and the defense stifled the scoreless Warriors, who gave up the ball on turnovers, picks, and easy missed shots. The second quarter had a slow tempo for both teams, 12 to 6; the Spartans led 25-6 at halftime. The third quarter ended 41-15 with loud and boisterous moments as there were moments I could have been at a field hockey game for the many times that the whistle was blown. The clock went to continuous run partway in the fourth quarter as the Spartans reached a 30-point spread 45-15, with the game concluding at 49-19.
