# West Orange-Stark at Newton, 2026
The algorithm likes West Orange-Stark by a field goal in this non-district matchup, but here's the thing, this one screams trap game written all over it. Newton's home crowd could be the great equalizer, and our model gives the Wildcats a legitimate 49% shot to pull off the upset, which basically means we're throwing our hands up. So the question for you faithful is simple, ride with the machine's slight lean toward the Mustangs or fade it and back the home team in what could be the closest call of the week.
