ANDERSON TWP., Ohio -- Turpin exceeded its 2014 win total in the fifth week of the season.

The Spartans defeated Eastern Cincinnati Conference foe Glen Este, 31-17 on Friday night for its fifth win a year after finishing 4-6.

The Spartans lost to the Trojans in 2014 by a score of 26-7. However, this matchup was all Turpin.

The first quarter was a defensive battle, with the only score coming on a Spartans field goal by Austin Jackson.

Turpin’s Luke Bohenek found the end zone from 8 yards out for a Spartans touchdown to put the Spartans up 10-0 early in the second quarter.

The Spartans extended their lead to 17 on a touchdown pass from Bennie Stoll to Tyler Schnitzler with a little over 3 minutes left in the first half.

Turpin continued its dominance in the second half, but not until Glen Este found the end zone twice to take the score to 17-14 in the middle of the third quarter.

The Spartans added two scores in the fourth quarter, a Bohenek 4-yard rush and a 33-yard pass from Stoll to Bohenek to down the Trojans 31-17 to remain undefeated (5-0).

Turpin (5-0, 2-0 in ECC) travels to Withrow next week to take on the Tigers, while Glen Este (3-2, 1-1 in ECC) will return home to face the Eagles from Milford.
