Week 2 Predictions

Townsend vs. Jarboe
35-45
Team Jarboe is feeling hot coming off of a Week 1 swamping and is looking to carry that momentum into their game against Team Townsend. Although Townsend was a little lack-luster in their performance last week, they will have back their first round pick, Kyle Plausse. I'd have the score closer if not for league renowned Bubonic Plague, Will "Hank the Zank" Zinkann.

Southwick vs. Manzi
53-49
This game will be close for sure. The highly anticipated duel of the quarterbacks will make for a good game. Both teams will have to give it there all to gain any sort of lead, and neither Sam or Bradley are known for having back to back mediocre weeks. However, I give this Week 2 win to Team Southwick due to the unrivaled coach-player bond of Harrison Southwick and Jack Barry trumping that of Will Manzi and Bradley Teduits.

Sellers vs. McNamara
44-38
I anticipate a win from Team Seller's in their season debut. McNamara is coming straight off a crushing defeat and will be looking to redeem themselves in their Week 2 match up. While both teams have two of the biggest rosters in the league, the depth of Seller's roster outmatches that of McNamara.

Strauss vs. Keast
38-43
The outcome of this game was hard to decide on for a couple of reasons, but ultimately I believe that Team KK will prevail. It is extremely hard to contain former Varsity player, Jeremy Keast. Although I do have faith that Dougie Tompkins will be able to limit his scoring, it will require a full team effort to subdue his excellent court vision. If Strauss can completely shutdown Keast on defense then there is a possibility that their young cast can take the win. However, I do not see this happening.

Willson vs. Hastings
39-55
There is not much to say about this match up. Based off of last week's results and power rankings, this game should be a blowout. Team Willson will have to dig deep to contain the league's most powerful back court. In the end expect Hastings to improve to 2-0 and Willson to fall to 0-2.
