Steinert’s Joe Swindasz gets ready to haul in one of his three touchdown catches from Nick Wright on Friday night as the Spartans took a 48-14 victory over West Windsor-Plainsboro under the lights. It was the Spartans first-ever home win in a night game, as they fell to St. Anthony’s in 1975 and Nottingham last year.

It was the end of a perfect 3-0 day for township teams, as Nottingham took a 26-24 win over Allentown in a huge game for state playoff power points, and Hamilton took a 14-0 win over Lawrence to win the WJFL Valley Division title. Talk about a TGIF Day!

Check out the photo gallery for action from all three games (Hamilton photos by Donna “Roll Tide” Brihn, Steinert photos by Amanda Ruch, Nottingham photos by Mary Malone).
