On Monday night the Spartans traveled to Spooner to face the Rails in the final game of the 2025 regular season. Superior started off slow, but controlled possession throughout the first half. It took a long punt from junior goalie Brady Bachand to get the scoring going. As the ball bounced into the opposite goal area it was junior Spencer Kidd controlling and putting the ball away for the 1-0 lead in the 16th minute. Later in the first half, a well taken corner kick by sophomore Henry Haugen was headed home by sophomore Marc Pagnucci to secure a 2-0 lead at half.
In the second half, the Spartans dominated possession and passing but it took awhile to get the scoring going again. Eventually it was two quick goals by Spencer Kidd just 43 seconds apart. Assists on those goals came from senior Peyton Franta and junior Jem Pontillas. Junior Chase Danielson finished off the scoring on an assist from Kidd. Bachand finished with 5 saves and the shutout in goal.
Superior improves their record to 12-3-1 on the season and now awaits the WIAA playoffs. For the second time in school history, the Spartans will host a playoff game as they earned the #3 seed in Division 1, Section 1. On Tuesday, October 21st Superior will host the Holmen Vikings at 5pm at the NBC Spartans Sports Complex. Let's pack the stadium and cheer the Spartans to victory!
