Another win, another milestone reached for the Mountain Brook basketball program. The Spartans took to the road and knocked off Class 7A Thompson, 76-58, on Monday night.

Jack Kline, shortly after reaching 700 career rebounds, now has the all-time wins record at Mountain Brook. With the Spartans' victory, Kline now has 112 wins in his varsity career, surpassing the total of Patrick Keim, who now plays at Auburn.

The UAH commit put forth a good effort in the game as well, scoring eight points and ripping down 13 rebounds.

Mountain Brook took its first lead on a pair of free throws from Ben Nelson 50 seconds before halftime, and never trailed again.
