Prediction: Lumen Christi by 9
Explanation: The Titans have had no challenges through their conference and Division 6 this year so it should be a fresh and loose team. Montague has had to exert a lot of energy these past two weeks vs. Schoolcraft in a mud pile field and 14-7 upset over Traverse City Saint Francis. A gritty Montague team would be the team, if any to upset Lumen Christi this year.
