The Spartans then had to face one of their biggest rivals in Christian Brothers High School (CBHS) on August 28th, 2026 away at Tom Nix Stadium. In the 2025 season, WSHS were handed a crushing defeat by CBHS, losing 44-13. This season, there was a heightened sense of optimism for the football team following their statement win over Bolton.
