The Pleasant Valley Spartans score their only points of the game, a 30-yard fieldgoal, just before halftime in last Friday's (9/3) opener against Bettendorf. The Bulldogs, ranked number one among the state's 4A schools, scored early and often to pile up a 35-3 lead at halftime. Running back Tim Jackson had four touchdowns, including a 60-yard punt return.
