OF NOTE: There may not be another quarterback coming into the playoffs with a hotter hand than Hunt, who has completed 52 of 82 passes (63.4 percent) for 648 yards in New Berlin's last two games. The only thing that has slowed the senior was having to sit out last week because his team received a forfeit when Varna Midland could not field a team. That slinging style of game would be fine with St. Teresa defensive back Patrick Althoff, who has already picked off eight passes. And Hunt hasn't had much help. Only twice has New Berlin run for 100 yards in a game, and in both of those, Hunt was the leading rusher.
St. Teresa will be back at full strength. Ryan Fyke returns after his one-game suspension and Jake Handley is healthy. The Bulldogs would like to see the Zach Jarrett they got last week (245 yards) rather than the one who ran 37 times for 131 in the previous three games against teams destined for the playoffs.
WINNER GETS: Hillsboro at Williamsville Winner.
