<p>#4 Lakeridge @<strong> #1 Lake Oswego (-4)</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Lakeridge has beaten LO the last two years by a combined score of 41-16. The Pacers D is legit and will try to make someone other [player_tooltip player_id='402416' first='Lamarcus' last='Bell'] beat them, which hasn't worked out well for most. Regardless, this will likely be a game that's decided in the final minutes. </p>

<p><strong>(-51) #2 Central Catholic</strong> @ Reynolds </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>CC will be gearing up for the playoffs and will probably play their top guys for most of the game, which isn't good for Reynolds. </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p><strong>(-49.5) #3 West Linn</strong> @ #13 Oregon City </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>The Lions came back in a big way against Tualatin and have the guys to make a title run. I see them being tough to beat moving forward. </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p><strong>(-31) #5 Sheldon</strong> @ #12 Sprague </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Sheldon is beating opponents by an average margin of 53-7 this year. They beat Grants Pass 63-6 last week, with the Oly's squeaking out a 41-40 win over GP, just to put the matchup into perspective. It might be over early. </p>

<p>#11 Tigard @ <strong>#6 Tualatin (-22)</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Tualatin has lost three of their last four but is still one of the top 6A teams in the state. If Tigard plays their best game of the year, they have a chance to hang around and make it interesting. The T-Wolves need a big win and the momentum heading into the playoffs. </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p><strong>(-42) #7 Mountainside</strong> @ Beaverton </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Likely over by half. The Mavericks are playing extremely well heading into the playoffs. </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Sunset @ <strong>#8 Jesuit (-29)</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>The Apollos have struggled for most of the season with Jesuit having some to prove after the loss to Mountainside. [player_tooltip player_id='770006' first='Joe' last='Stimpson'], [player_tooltip player_id='285867' first='Grant' last='Valley'], and Domini Locati have played great all year. </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Clackamas @ <strong>#9 Nelson (-15.5)</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Both teams are 6-2 with and vying for the #2 seed in the Mt Hood. Clack Jr. QB [player_tooltip player_id='402407' first='Dylan' last='Brower'] has been on point all year, but Nelson can play with anybody when they are on. I see them pulling away in the 2<sup>nd</sup> half. </p>

<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p><strong>(-17) #10 Sherwood</strong> @ Newberg </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>[player_tooltip player_id='1103727' first='Wilson' last='Medina'] looks like one of the top RB's to come out of Oregon in the last 1/2 decade. Newberg is a decent team winning their last 4 games, after losing their first 4. The Tigers have the potential to stick around. </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>West Salem @ <strong>#14 Grants Pass (-20)</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>GP has had a good season at 5-3 but got a dose of reality last week against #5 Sheldon losing 63-6. Look for the Cavemen to get back on track against a West Salem program that has struggled. </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>North Medford @ <strong>#15 South Medford (-2.5)</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Look for this to be a close game especially with South standout [player_tooltip player_id='285876' first='Kameron' last='Rague'] suspended. North Medford has some legit athletes if they can put it all together. </p>
