Jill Weimer recorded a double-double with 10 points and 10 rebounds for the Spartans (9-4, 3-0 IML), who host Sandpoint on Thursday.

"It always comes into play," Tigers coach Matt Miller said about the added energy of the spirit game. "That's not a valid excuse though and you have to give it to Priest River. They played great and did what they wanted to do the entire game."
