Gorham (3-0) at Windham (2-1)
Gorham running back Justin Villacci sat out Gorham’s 43-21 win over Cheverus last week, but Jon Mitchell filled in well, running for 163 yards on 15 carries and scoring two touchdowns.
Unfortunately for Windham, Gorham should have both backs available Friday. Last week the Eagles’ defense allowed Bonny Eagle running back Scott Proudman four touchdowns and over 10 yards per carry.
The Rams dominate teams on the ground and Windham should be no exception.
Prediction: Gorham 37, Windham 10
Bonny Eagle (3-0) @ Portland (1-2)
Losers of two in a row, Portland is facing an undefeated team for the third straight week. Bonny Eagle rolled against Windham last week behind Scott Proudman and his four touchdowns.
Both teams are capable of big plays on offense, with quarterback Chris Treister leading the way for Portland and the speedster Proudman providing the biggest threat for Bonny Eagle.
The Bulldogs, returning home after playing the last two weeks on the road, will not lose their third in a row.
Prediction: Portland 33, Bonny Eagle 31
Westbrook (1-2) @ Cheverus (0-3)
Cheverus is a much better team than its schedule indicates. Quarterback Vin Ciampi and halfback Andrew Pochebit combine for a balanced offensive attack that should score enough points to defeat a Westbrook team that managed only eight against South Portland.
Prediction: Cheverus 31, Westbrook 6
Last weeks record: 3-0
