The picks are in for Week 8.
Our crew of Christian Babcock, Nathan Canilao, Glenn Reeves and Darren Sabedra predict 15 games on the schedule, highlighted by an East Bay showdown between Campolindo and Acalanes and league matchups between Los Gatos and Wilcox and Serra and St. Francis.
Sabedra made up ground last week as he went 10-5 and now sits a game behind first-place Babcock in the standings. Reeves took first in Week 7, making 11 correct picks.
All in fun, as always.
In this week’s video podcast, the duo of Babcock and Canilao discussed Campolindo’s win over Monte Vista and talked about the importance of Friday’s game against Acalanes. The guys also discussed St. Francis’ comeback win over Archbishop Mitty and the improvements the Lancers made since starting the year 0-4.
Canilao also gives his thoughts on McClymonds and the father-son coaching pair of Marcus and Michael Peters.
