HS FOOTBALL PICKS

Is it us or does Allentown no longer seem to have as many players from Trenton. Hightstown at NOTRE DAME: Did you know Notre Dame’s five wins are against teams with a combined record of 5-17. And of those five wins ND’s opponents have recorded, the teams they beat have a combined three wins. LAWRENCE at Princeton:

All you need to know about the Prep is it lost to Shawnee (5-0) in overtime. Hopewell Valley’s Kyle Pisauro (79) celebrates a sack with teammate Ryan Pisauro (73) against Nottingham last week. Our prognosticator likes the Bulldogs in their matchup with Hamilton. Council Rock South at PENNSBURY: One can only hope Drew Hensor will return for the Falcons. Abington at TRUMAN: Tigers have a lot to prove after last week. Bensalem at NESHAMINY: Splat! SOUDERTON at Council Rock North: Crunch! JENKINTOWN at Bristol: Kapow! Morrisville at SPRINGFIELD (MONTCO): Nervous upstate teams starting to scout the Dawgies for the playoffs. Conwell-Egan at WEST CATHOLIC: Murderous schedule has taken its toll on the Eagles.

SATURDAY ROBBINSVILLE at Riverside: Word is ESPN is revamping its schedule to air Robbinsville live on a Friday night.

Clayton at MAPLE SHADE: But Shaders had better beware because Clayton’s only loss is to powerhouse Robbinsville. TOWER HILL at Pennington: Delaware team is undefeated and crushed St. Andrew’s last year.

Hill at HUN: Considering Hill has already forfeited this game, let’s go out on a limb and pick the Raiders. Lawrenceville at PEDDIE: Did you know Peddie only bothered to use 10 players last week on defense in rout of Hill.

JOHN BLAINE — FOR THE TRENTONIAN Despite getting three games wrong involving Mercer County teams last week, our high school football prognosticator continued to roll along with a 23-4 record. This week’s selections include Hopewell to beat Hamilton. FRIDAY TRENTON at Allentown: Ground & Pound biggest thing to come to Princeton since George Washington’s Continental Army. DELRAN at Ewing: News flash! HBO is reconsidering its decision not to air its special featuring Matt Dalessio. Hamilton at HOPEWELL VALLEY: Bulldog soccer coach Ed Gola escorted out by snack bar security guards after sneaking in ice cream cone from Uncle Ed’s Creamery. NOTTINGHAM at West Windsor: Northstar AD Jon Adams still looking for a restaurant to get the right breakfast and a mechanic to fix his golf cart. FLORENCE at Bordentown: Talk about a onesided series. Burlington Township at CLEARVIEW: Pioneers have revenge on their minds. Cinnaminson at BISHOP EUSTACE: Rare down year for the Pirates.
