During the C-team boys’ fourth basketball game, the Spartans started off strong and were able to keep a steady lead for the remainder of the game. Their game against Fort Zumwalt West on Dec. 14 was a hit for the crowd as the Spartans finished on top with 55 points against the Jaguar’s 33 points. The entire school was already buzzing from multiple events taking place that night and the crowd was jam-packed. One of the school’s new additions to the Spartans, freshman Daniel Maher, explains how a crowd’s support encourages them to keep going.
“I think a big part of the games is the energy of the crowds,” Maher said, “When people come to our games and cheer us on then we play a lot better rather than when a game that is completely silent.”
As winter break starts, the boys will have time to rest from their winning streak and focus on practices and all their games to come. The Spartans will travel next to the home of the Wolves at Timberland for their game on the evening of Jan. 4.
