An emotional weekend for the Spartans ended in a 3-0 record, defeating Kentucky (19-4), Ohio State (14-13), and Ohio University (19-12) to move their record to 6-1 on the season.
We would like to thank all of the teams we competed against this weekend for their support during this difficult time for our school. We will continue to be there for one another – together we are Spartan Strong.
