The Spartans got on track, but it was too late to get a spot in the Championship gameThis year the Spartans plan on getting it right from the opening kick. Through the rest of the Classic last year and the BNEFF season as well, the Spartans showed that they are not an easy W for anyone and that they will fight tooth and nail until the final gun sounds.
