Sharks, Indians, Spartans looking to bounce back
By STEVE JACKSON
Riverview, East Bay and Spoto all lost in last week’s high school football action. Lennard was the only SouthShore gridiron squad to register a victory under the Friday night lights.
This Friday night Riverview travels to play 3-4 Ridge Community in Davenport. The Sharks, now 6-2, came out on the short end of a 38-7 score in 8A District 8 against Riverview Rams of Sarasota. Coach William Mosel’s Sharks fell behind early and never recovered, trailing 31-0 by halftime in Sarasota.
East Bay also took a whipping from visiting Wiregrass Ranch from Wesley Chapel. The Indians fell to 2-6 on the season. Coach Frank LaRosa’s team now has a week off before facing the powerful 6-1 Armwood Hawks in Seffner on Oct. 25.
The Spoto Spartans hope to bounce back at home versus Middleton this Friday. Coach Cassius Crawford’s 1-6 team lost last week 42-0 to Blake.
