PRICHARD — The Toros got tested early by LeFlore at Prichard Stadium, but the Spanish Fort defense held the Rattlers scoreless down the stretch to record a 25-6 Class 6A, Region 1 win to close the regular season. SF will host host Carver-Montgomery (5-5) Friday in round one of the state playoffs at 7 p.m.

Spanish Fort answered on Jack Samsel’s 1-yard touchdown keeper to close the first half scoring. In the second half, Conner Hegan scored on a 25-yard touchdown run in the third quarter followed by a field goal and a Samsel TD pass to Logan Morgan to extend the Toros’ lead.
