The school provided about six (6) sports boys to the regional team that year.
In athletics, SPACO can boast of a lot of records that stand in the name of students of the school. It was in 2006 when some of these old were updated. Atiga David set a record in 800 metres and 1500 metres in 1992, which records remain unbroken. Sowubo Kwaku’s 200m and long jump records have not also been broken.
