Congratulations to senior Bo Stephensfor being named
Spartan of the Week! (Week of February 19):
“Bo has worked extremely hard to make his senior season a memorable one; his hard work has already started to pay off! Bo threw 4 hitless innings with 5 strikeouts in the Spartans 6-1 victory over Putnam County. He then followed that great performance by sending all Spartans home happy with a walk-off single in a comeback victory against Clarke Central.“ –Casey Kane, Head Coach Varsity Baseball
Congratulations to the girls basketball team for advancing to the Sweet Sixteen before losing to the defending champion Mt. Paran last Friday night.
Congratulations to the boys basketball team for its impressive Sweet Sixteen win Saturday vs Walker School 67-52 in the SSC! As a result, the Spartans host Toombs County Wednesday at 6:30 pm in the SSC. We believe this may be the deepest the Spartans have advanced in the state playoffs (Elite Eight).
