# Runge Visits San Marcos Academy
San Marcos Academy welcomes Runge to town in a non-district matchup that our model is leaning heavily toward the home squad, projecting a 7-point SMA victory with 70% confidence. The question for fans: do you trust the algorithm's lean toward the Rattlers, or is there enough intrigue in a road test to fade the favorite? Either way, this one should tell us plenty about where both programs stand early in the 2026 season.
