RECORDS: Torrington 0-5; Joel Barlow 4-1
LAST WEEK: Naugatuck 33, Torrington 3; Joel Barlow 45, New Fairfield 21
LAST SEASON: Did not meet
TISCIA'S PICK: Joel Barlow 38, Torrington 16 - Asking for a win here from Torrington may be too much, but asking for improvement isn't.

LAST WEEK: Wolcott Tech 34, Whitney Tech 0; Prince Tech 40, Wilcox Tech 14
LAST SEASON: Prince Tech 38, Wolcott Tech 6
TISCIA'S PICK: Prince Tech 33, Wolcott Tech 20 - The Wildcats have played very well the last two weeks, especially on offense, notching 74 points in that span. They will need similar production to upset unbeaten Prince Tech.

LAST WEEK: Coginchaug 40, Lewis Mills 7; Granby Memorial 42, Haddam-Killingworth 22

TISCIA'S PICK: Granby Memorial 35, Lewis Mills 14 - The Spartans will not get their first win here, but have a great chance to pick it up next week at home against Housatonic/Wamogo.
HOUSATONIC/WAMOGO VS. AVON
WHEN: Saturday, 2 p.m.

LAST SEASON: Avon 37, Housatonic/Wamogo 7
TISCIA'S PICK: Avon 36, Housatonic/Wamogo 6 - This will be a very tough game for the Mountaineers, who have yet to crack double digits this season.
NONNEWAUG VS. CANTON
WHEN: Saturday, 3 p.m.
LOCATION: Nonnewaug High School
RECORDS: Nonnewaug 1-3; Canton 3-1
LAST WEEK: SMSA 26, Nonnewaug 20; Canton 28, Coventry 27
