Holland Boyd, Peter Allison and Jacob Zlater also played in goal. George Irvin, Holland Boyd and Peter Allison spent a lot of time in the mud due to some hard tackles.

Saints 3, Spartans 2

Sept. 11 at Marshall Park

This was another tough game for the Spartans. The Saints got off to a very fast start, scoring two goals in the first quarter, but Koz Kozloff teamed up with Luke Brogan, who scored the Spartans first goal. Matthew Garcia-Calderon assisted a Garrett Maddux goal from the 18-yard line which tied the game. The Saints scored once more in the third quarter and the battle continued. The Spartans never gave up, but lost the game. Kyle Raymond, Ryan Stanitski and Quandel Johnson each put forth a tremendous effort and really hustled.
