CENTRAL — It was a week of upsets in Baton Rouge area high school football. Any contestant who picked the “favorites” in Week Three of Oak Point Fresh Market’s Pick 12 Football Contest did poorly.

But Conor Babin of 12623 Conwood Ave. predicted some upsets, and he had the best score for Week Three the Pick 12 Football Contest. Conor picked 11 winners out of the 12 featured games.

As an employee of Oak Point, he can participate in the contest but is not eligible to win a prize.

So this week’s prize goes to Charles Welsh of 13904 Tech Drive, who was second with 10 of 12 correct games. Charles will receive a $50 gift certificate from Oak Point and a chance in an end-of-season drawing for a 55-inch giant color HDTV.

Pick 12 Football Contest Entry Forms for Week Four (games of Sept. 16-18) appeared the Oak Point ad on Page 16 of the Central City News for Thursday, Sept. 8. In order to participate in Week Four’s contest, bring those forms to Oak Point Fresh Market by 6 p.m. on Friday, Sept. 16.
