Clarke Prep unfortunately couldn't capitalize on their home-court advantage in their season opener. They took a blow against the Sparta Academy Warriors on Friday, falling 51-20. The Gators' loss continues a trend for the squad, making it 11 in a row dating back to last season.

The dominant performance also gave Robinson a new career-high in threes (two). Jud Robinson was another key player, posting nine points plus eight rebounds.
The win got Sparta Academy back to even at 1-1.
