Richard Montgomery at Northwest: WJ showed that RM’s defense isn’t going to hang with the big dogs. Fresh off boatracing Damascus, Northwest’s athletes should terrorize the Rockets. Northwest 45
Gaithersburg at Watkins Mill: Getting blown out by QO is tuff but at this point not indicative of much other than you’re not winning the 4A title. WM will be a good bounceback opportunity for the Trojans. Gaithersburg by 44

In Week 1, Quince Orchard proved that they belong with the best of the best in Virginia by thrashing a very good South County team 33-0. While South County is very good, though, I’m not sure I would put them on that upper echelon of VA HS teams. Stone Bridge, on the other hand, has historically been a part of that top echelon. Can they give QO a challenge?
