Spartan Rules to Live By

Spartan Rules to live by

 10- Know your capabilities and your limits.

                  Never take a shot that you can't make!

   9- Master your weaknesses.

                  Fear, is only a thought!

   8- Anything in life worth doing is worth overdoing.

                  Moderation is for cowards!

   7- Overwhelm your opponent. (Be Fast, Decisive, on Target)

                  Don’t bring a knife to a gunfight! 

   6- Lead. (Honor, Duty, God, Family and Country)

                  Only irrelevant people belittle ambition - Move around or through them!  

                  You can’t lead by blaming others

                  Lesser people find excuses!

   5- Your character is defined by how you react to adversity.

                  Never Quit!

                  Always do the right thing even when others fear you might succeed!

   4- Ask yourself WWJWD?

                  If not clear, then ask WWJD?

                  Remember, rules are made by those no longer on the battlefield.

   3- Be relentless at being your best 
                  Nothing worthwhile ever comes easy.

                  The only easy day was yesterday! (US Navy SEALS)

SLJH 8th Grade B Team Spartans defeat the CRJH Coyotes (Tue, Sep 17, 2013)

The SLJH 8^th grade B team kept up with the other Spartan teams by beating the CRJH Coyotes. All three 7^th and 8^th grade Spartan teams swept their CR Coyote opponents.

The 8^th grade B team Spartans looked eager to take on the CR Coyotes. The Spartans offense looked poised and were able to move the ball quite well. The defense was very aggressive and had numerous tackles in the Coyote back field frustrating the coyotes throughout the game.

Although the Spartans B Team defense was new, eager and over committing, they were, never-the-less, relentless. It appeared that the CR Coyotes were prepared as a team but they were not prepared for the constant ferocious attacks by the Spartans.

The fact that this was the Spartans first game showed with too many scattered formations and unfocused assignments. However, the sheer Spartan determination got them to victory.

The SLJH Spartan coaches will take on the long held practice of never avoiding to address weaknesses even in victory.

The Spartans tradition continues to grow with victories like these.

Keep up the intense work!

Keep up the tradition!

LIVE by the Spartan Rules!:     

     Give your Spartans teammates all you have!

     Give your opponent nothing!

     But take from them everything!

     No retreat, no surrender!

     Come back with your shield, or on it!

                    (in honor of US Navy Seal Lt. Michael Murphy! a true Hero, a true Spartan!)

Go Spartans!

     AH-OOH! AH-OOH! AH-OOH!

2013 SLJH 8th Grade Spartan Football: HERE WE GO!

Although it is still hot as heck,  2013 Spartan Football season is in our midst!

Our 2013 8th grade Spartans have been working hard at getting themselves ready for some football. Coach Muhammad and the 8^th grade coaches have our Spartans going through the drills. Our Spartans are looking very good. We have a good deal of new players as well as the more senior players from last year. Their true Spartan metal will be shown on the field. 

We look forward to the first real hitting during next week’s scrimmages against the Cardiff JH (Colts)/McDonald JH (Panthers) Teams.

The time of the scrimmage appears to be in flux but I believe they start at 3:30 on our own SSLJH Competition field.

Remember the rules Spartans live by:

     

     Give your Spartans teammates all you have!

     Give your opponent nothing!

     But take from them everything!

     No retreat, no surrender!

     Come back with your shield, or on it!

                    (in honor of US Navy Seal Lt. Michael Murphy! a true Hero, a true Spartan!)

Go Spartans!

     AH-OOH! AH-OOH! AH-OOH!
