Predicting the winner of each Week 9 High School football game in Central Mass.

This is where the rubber meets the road. With the MIAA tournament starting this week, and predictions proving to be even more difficult this time of year, I’d like to point out that I’ve correctly picked high school football results in Central Mass. at a 78 percent clip so far this fall. Call me Nostradamus. Call me Mr. Cleo. Call me Total Consistency . Whatever you call me, you can also call me (well, the T&G) after I make incorrect predictions, too: 508-793-9350. As a reminder, while the Telegram & Gazette opens itself up to bulletin-board material, second guessing and verbal lashings, I handicap each high school football game — with no biases or bribes provided under the table — throughout the course of the 2026 season. With pencil in hand and the delete button on standby, here are my predictions for the Week 9 slate of the high school football games in the Central Mass. and Worcester this week. Last Week: 18-7 Season: 170-46 Playoff games THURSDAY Brockton (3-5) at St. John’s (7-1), 6 p.m. As a No. 2 seed in the Division 1 bracket, the Pioneers have a path to play top-seeded St. John’s Prep in a Super
