PREDICTIONS
Northsantarosa.com is 22-10 on the season. Last week, we went 2-2, missing out on Milton losing and Central winning. Let’s see how we do this week.
Jay will have their hands full as Blacksher comes in with HOCO-wrecking plans on their minds. However, the Royals will continue their winning ways as the Royals Pride Band plays the J-H-S Fight Song as Jay makes it five wins in a row…Jay 34 Blacksher 28
Make it three in a row for Central…Central 33 Wewa 7
Pace is good, but how will they respond in a close game? This one should be a fight to the finish, but we’re going to give the nod to the home team…Pace 35 Milton 28
