I think this week's picken' should be scratched.
Did SJP  really play SJR this weekend.
They did have a scrimmage.

This  missed my entire pickem' up.
I can't expect to perform at a high level when scrimmages are mixed in with games. 😭

I was on early again .  I was a whopping 6-3 with 6 wins for 34 pts... and 3 losses with 14 points.
Missed: American Heritage (8), St. John Bosco (1), and Orange Lutheran (5).
7 was on St. Joseph Regional.

Please will someone verify they got my picks.

Thanks

You're correct, it was a scrimmage. My apologies for the oversight. I always check multiple sources before including games. I don't remember which sources had this listed as a non-scrimmage but there were at least two.

As a result, I have effectively thrown out this game. I have adjusted everyone's picks to make that the one point game (so 54 points available instead of 55) and adjusted all of the other picks accordingly. For example, if this game was your 3 point pick, I made your 1 point pick to 2, and your 2 point pick to 3.
