Everett at home vs. X-men
The start of the high school football season can mean only one thing — the return of Pickorama.
As we’ve done for the past few years, we select 10 of the top games each weekend and attempt — and yes I use the term loosely — to successfully pick the winners of each of those contests. Some weeks we fare better than others as evidenced by our 76.4 winning percentage last year.
Please don’t take any of the picks personally, it’s just one man’s opinion. (HOME TEAM IN CAPS)
BC High over ANDOVER: Too much Daniel Abraham. Where have we heard that narrative before?
DUXBURY over Bridgewater-Raynham: One of the top matchups of the opening week. Slight edge to the hosts based on the line.
Central Catholic over DARTMOUTH: Balanced attack paves the way to victory for the visiting Raiders.
MILLIS over Holliston: Rolling the dice with the smaller school here.
North Attleboro over KING PHILIP: Leaning toward the Red Rocketeers based on experience.
Old Rochester over WAREHAM: Battle of the Backs goes to Old Rochester.
MANSFIELD over Walpole: Hornets ready to sting the opposition.
HAMILTON-WENHAM over Bishop Fenwick: Rest assured, you will see the pigskin being tossed around here.
LEXINGTON over Brockton: The Sal Frelick Show begins.
EVERETT over Xaverian: Crimson Tide send the fans home happy on Homecoming Day.
Last year’s record: 113-35
