FOUNTAIN SPRINGS – The North Schuylkill Spartans will take a perfect record into the postseason, after a sound victory over Lehighton at home Saturday afternoon.

Saturday’s game was North Schuylkill’s first in two weeks, after a positive coronavirus test prompted a hiatus.

Most of the scoring in Saturday’s game came in the first half, with the Spartans taking a 41-7 lead into the locker room at the half.
