CORRECTION: A previous version of this story dated the Lynden game on Friday. It is scheduled for Saturday.

The Spartan football team took down Kingston 26-9 Friday night, earning them a spot in the WIAA State 2A tournament’s Elite Eight.

Chase Torgison kickstarted the night’s scoring with a 6-yard run into the Buccaneer end zone during the first quarter.

In the second quarter, Jeremy Jackson intercepted the Bucs’ ball and helped himself to a 46-yard touchdown. Lokahi Kamau iced the cake with a successful 2-point conversion.

Later in the second, Torgison passed the ball to DeJon Lynch, who ran in a 19-yard touchdown.

Only then did Kingston start racking up its own score, sending Colin Stone to kick a 36-yard field goal for 3 points.

Lynch ensured his opponents’ fate was sealed with a 52-yard end zone run in the third quarter.

Kingston’s Henry English managed a 26-yard run in the third, but both teams went scoreless in the fourth quarter and the status quo saw the Spartans ascendant.

Sumner takes on the Lynden High Lions Saturday at Sunset Chev Stadium. Lynden went undefeated in its regular season, and has lost only one game overall.
