St. Thomas had a big event at school scheduled for Friday night. Anytime you have a night contest it adds interest. This will give people who have to work on Saturdays a chance to watch their kids play Friday nights. And those people who want to take off on weekends will be able to. The Spartans have won but one game in each of the last three seasons.
Football is a game of numbers.
With more kids coming out there's a better opportunity for having a competitive team. It's like a domino effect. When kids see more people at the games they'll play better. And bigger crowds will get more kids to come out for the program. The lights will be a tremendous help.
