On this day in 1971, the Spartans defeated P.S. du Pont 8 - 6 for their first win as a varsity program. Saint Mark's opened the scoring in the third quarter on a Ken Smith 3-yard quarterback keeper. Joe McLaughlin ran for the two-point conversion. The Dynamiters looked to tie in the fourth on a Jim Clark 40-yard pass to Mickey Gandy, but the conversion run failed.
