Predicting the winner of each Week 10 High School football game in Central Mass.

Before the football season wraps up and the holidays arrive, I’d like to remind everyone that I am indeed NOT the Grinch. While I’m tasked with predicting high school football results each week , I’d like our local teams to actually win (contrary to popular belief). Unfortunately, that’s not always the case. But either way, we are here to cover you — win, lose or draw. Still, as I get greedy this time of year, I’d like to point out that I went 31-6 (!) last week amid the tricky proposition of picking playoff (and non-playoff) winners. How ‘bout them apples? So, 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 10 slate of the high school football games in the Central Mass. and Worcester this week. Last Week: 31-6 (21-3 in playoff games, 10-3 in non-playoff games) Season: 201-52 THURSDAY Haverhill at St. John’s, 6 p.m.

New School Building Update: Variety of Plans Released

In the conference room in the central office, a new building is being presented, and it’s the biggest thing for Triton yet. The building project has been in the planning phase since 2019, when the school committee started researching how to fix the building, which was originally built in 1971.

Now, in 2026, the Triton Committee is saying the building project will start close to the year 2030.

YOUR VIEW: Parking lot criticism ‘missed the mark’

Reasons offered in a recent letter in the Plymouth Independent questioning the addition of 90 new parking spaces at Nathaniel Morton Elementary School missed the mark. Limiting impervious surfaces and reducing the potential for contaminant runoff into the harbor is always beneficial. But adding shared parking spaces at this location won’t change society’s preference for large vehicles; it doesn’t argue for smaller (compact) parking spaces, and it won’t reduce harmful stormwater runoff.
