At Springville Junior High, the seventh though ninth-grade boys football season is under way and is going until the end of October. There are six teams: SOS Drug Store, Rotary, Quality Cleaners, Reams, the freshman A team, and the freshman B team.

Klade Smith, a member of the freshman B team, said, “Football is a great sport. you get to go out and hit with your brothers on the team.” According to Klade, it is fun to got out and play with your friends. “I treat my teammates like my brothers,” said Klade.

The freshman team was one team until it was split up into two. Nik Grosland, a member of the ninth grade A team, said, “I think that splitting up the teams was a great idea we get to split the talent.”  The two teams have the same mascot: the Red Devils. So far the B team has 4-1 record, and the A team has a 0-5 record.

There are also two eighth-grade teams: the Reams Badgers and the Quality Cleaners Vikings. Zuki Kaufman, a member of the Reams Badgers, said, “I like playing football, getting the right play done, and tackling.”
So far the Reams Badgers are 7-0 and the quality cleaner Vikings are 3-3. Thomas Child, a member of the Quality Cleaners Viking, said, “I love My team because we laugh, we are all good sports, and we work together.”  With the season halfway over and games still to come, all the teams are going to work hard to win the championship.
