Last week featured several big matchups for our local squads and three of the four teams in the Journal Tribune coverage area came out on top.
Thornton Academy picked up an impressive road win at Scarborough as the Golden Trojans rallied from a 14-point deficit in the fourth quarter to take down the Red Storm.
The Wells Warriors picked up a strong win over Class C powerhouse Cape Elizabeth, while Kennebunk rolled over Falmouth and Biddeford dropped a 35-21 decision on the road at Marshwood.
Old Orchard Beach continued its strong start with a 30-13 win over Oak Hill. Finally, in a rivalry showdown last Friday night the Sanford Spartans dominated Massabesic in a 35-7 victory.
Due to our limited space in the sports section today, we will have a shorter version of the JT Power Rankings.

1. Thornton Academy (3-0, host Cheverus on Saturday)
2. Wells (3-0, host Madison/Carrabec tonight)
