BECKLEY, WV (LOOTPRESS) – The Greenbrier East Spartans (AAA) went on the road Friday night and came away with a statement win, defeating rival Woodrow Wilson (AAAA) 28-14 in one of southern West Virginia’s biggest high school football rivalries.
The Spartans (2-0) dealt enough stops to hand the Flying Eagles their first loss of the season.
The victory marks Greenbrier East’s second straight win to open the year, adding extra weight to a rivalry that always draws big crowds and plenty of emotion.
With the win, Greenbrier East returns home next week to host Alleghany, VA. Woodrow Wilson, meanwhile, will look to bounce back when it travels north to face the Parkersburg South Patriots.
