A Look Back at the Spartans 2014-15 Season


The gym at Scarborough High School is quiet until next November.  The Spartans basketball team has wrapped up a season to remember.  Coach Martin Wall's club won 23 games, including the first play-off game in school history.  Here are a few highlights from the 2014-15 season.

The Season Opener- The Scarborough gym was rocking as a new season began on November 18. A 53-38 win over Northbrook got the schedule off to a great start.

Third Place in the Hempstead Christmas Classic- The Spartans won their first four games in this tournament December 18-20.  After dropping their fifth game, they bounced back to defeat Huntington and claim third place in the 12-team tournament.

A Win Over Wheatley- The Spartans got many people's attention when they knocked off Wheatley, 68-61.  It was in all likelihood, Scarborough's first-ever victory over the basketball powerhouse.

Play-off Bound- It took until the final game of the season for the Spartans to clinch their first play-off berth in a decade, but they did it.  A 60-58 victory over Washington assured Scarborough of a third-place district finish and a trip to the post-season.

On to the Second Round- At the end of a tight contest against La Grange, the Spartans brought out the late-game heroics to win the first play-off game in school history.  When the buzzer sounded, the gym at Morton Ranch High School in Katy looked a lot like Scarborough High School West.
