Lots of shuffling among the leaders

Week Two of the Grid Picks is in the books and we already have new leaders up at the top of the standings. Brad Hurley and Patrick Matsinko have taken over the lead, while yours truly and Emmett McCall made a move towards the front of the pack.

Last week's leader Jason Boris stumbled a bit after an undefeated first week. Don't be surprised to see more more shuffling after this weekend with a couple of toss-up games on the slate.So let's get to it:TAMAQUA AT JIM THORPE - The Olympians haven't given up a touchdown yet this year, but face their toughest test thus far in the Raiders. Tamaqua surprised Schuylkill Valley in a onn-leaguer last week and this week ventures back into the AFL. This should be a good one…Jim Thorpe, 14-7.NORTH SCHUYLKILL AT LEHIGHTON - Indians have blown out their first two foes and entertain pre-season favorite Spartans tonight. This one could be a war. It's tough to pick against the Spartans…North Schuylkill, 21-13.MAHANOY AREA AT PANTHER VALLEY - Golden Bears are coming off a stunning win over Schuylkill Haven last week. Panthers mustn't turn the ball over if they want to keep this one close..Mahanoy Area, 21-14.MARIAN AT MINERSVILLE - Colts will win in another blowout here…Marian, 40-0.WHITEHALL AT PLEASANT VALLEY - Bears are 0-2 and looked a lot better last week than in the opener. The Zephyrs are tough defensively…Whitehall, 27-12.BANGOR AT PALMERTON - Bombers are one of four teams left unbeaten in the Colonial League after two weeks of play. Slaters run the Wing-T putting the Bomber "D" up to the challenge…Palmerton, 21-14.NORTHERN LEHIGH AT WILSON - Bulldogs look to get back on track after last week's debacle against Saucon Valley…Northern Lehigh, 21-7.NORTHWESTERN AT PEN ARGYL - Tigers take a Saturday afternoon trip to the Slate Belt to continue their run…Northwestern, 30-7.BLUE MOUNTAIN AT POTTSVILLE - Rivalry gets renewed here as the Eagles return to their Schuylkill roots…Blue Mountain, 14-7.SCHUYLKILL HAVEN AT SHENANDOAH VALLEY - Hurricanes look to rebound after last week's loss to Mahanoy…Schuylkill Haven, 35-0.PALISADES AT CATASAUQUA - This one's a tossup as we see it with the Pirates maybe having a little edge. Going out on the limb here…Catasauqua, 21-16.SALISBURY AT NOTRE DAME - Falcons haven't looked bad in spots. With the home field though, we'll take…Notre Dame, 12-0.SOUTHERN LEHIGH AT SAUCON VALLEY - The Spartans had a struggle with Wilson last week. Panthers struggled with Salisbury in the opener, but can make a statement here after routing Northern Lehigh last week…Saucon Valley, 14-13.STROUDSBURG AT EAST STROUDSBURG SOUTH - It's not Turkey Day, but the Mounts have the edge here…Stroudsburg, 21-14.FREEDOM AT EMMAUS - Wouldn't be surprised if Emmaus won this won, but we have to go with…Freedom-, 14-7.
