After two weeks on the road, Northbridge is heading back home. Burncoat and Northbridge go head to head on Friday at 7:00 PM in their first playoff match of the year. Northbridge have the odds in their favor, so they'll need to guard against complacency.
The match between Northbridge and Grafton Memorial last Saturday was not a total blowout, but with Northbridge falling 7-26, it was darn close. This makes it the second defeat in a row for Northbridge.
Meanwhile, if Burncoat were riding high off their 22-0 takedown of South Community/University Park/Claremont Academy two weeks ago, that ride came to an abrupt end. Burncoat found themselves the reluctant recipients of an unpleasant 18-48 punch to the gut against Hamden Hall Country Day. Burncoat were down by 12-40 at the end of the third quarter, which was just too much to recover from.
The two teams will surely be scrapping tooth and nail to get back into the win column after losses last week. We'll see which team satisfies their hunger and which team leaves with an empty stomach.
