The Luxemburg-Casco Spartans open the 2023-2024 season with a conference matchup against Marinette on Tuesday.

The Spartans are coming off an 11-14 record that saw them go 9-9 in the North Eastern Conference. Their season ended early in the WIAA Tournament when they lost to West De Pere 62-22. Leading scorers Brianna Bray (7.5 ppg) and Magdeline Hanmann (6.2 ppg) are back in the fold, but they will have a new coach leading them from the bench. Beth Budnik takes over the program from Taylor Bredael-Schmidt. Like Schmidt, Budnik was on a state championship team in 2013 when her Kewaunee Storm beat East Troy. 

The Marines lost their first game of the season last week to Coleman 44-32. Riley Kieffer led the way with eight points, while two other players contributed six points.

Tip-off is set for 7 p.m.
