Meanwhile, Spalding put another one in the bag on Friday to keep their undefeated season alive. They blew past West Laurens, posting a 43-6 victory at home. The result was nothing new for Spalding, who have now won five contests by 27 points or more so far this season.

Westside might still be hurting after the 39-18 defeat they got from Spalding when the teams last played back in October of 2022. Will Westside have more luck at home instead of on the road?
