Sparta has put together a field for its Sparta Tournament this week that nearly includes nothing but teams with winning records.
The Sparta Tournament tips off on Tuesday with the host Trojans (8-6) among an incredible seven winning teams in the eight-team field.
First-round matchups Tuesday include No. 8 seed New Covenant against No. 1 Ava (15-1) at 4 p.m., No. 5 Sparta versus No. 4 Gainesville (11-5) at 5:30 p.m., No. 7 Chadwick (10-3) opposite No. 2 Greenwood (13-6) at 7 p.m. and No. 6 Fair Grove (9-7) against No. 3 Mansfield (11-7) at 8:30 p.m..
New Covenant, with former Sparta coach Ryan Worley, is the lone team without a winning record.
