The Bainbridge High football team played their most competitive game of the season so far Friday, ultimately losing to the Seattle Prep Panthers at the Spartans’ homecoming game with a final score of 42-21.

The Spartans managed several late-game touchdowns, making up some of the ground lost when Seattle Prep pulled ahead in points early on.

The Spartans were losing 22-0 at halftime, but the home crowd at Memorial Stadium still had something to cheer about.

The 2013 homecoming king and queen were crowned, and the celebration marked the 86th anniversary of the formation of Bainbridge High. Kate Hathaway was crowned homecoming queen and Walker Hauptman was picked as homecoming king.

The Spartans play their next game at home against Hazen High at 7 p.m. Friday, Oct. 18.
