Ashby quarterback Sam Graham completed just one of his four passes on the night, and it was good enough for a 34 yard touchdown to Jordan Lillemon, but not enough to upset the Spartans.

Ashby was led defensively by Patrick Rohloff and his 14 solo tackles, as well as Brett Bowman’s two fumble recoveries.
All of the game’s scoring took place in the first half as Ashby held a 8-6 advantage after the opening quarter.
Ashby will be in Graceville next Tuesday to take on the No. 2-ranked (9-Man) Clinton-Graceville-Beardsley in its final game of the year.
