A ton of quality matchups this week as we get, for the most part, deep into league play. Here are the ones we have our eyes on for now. Methuen at Billerica — These might be the two best teams in the Merrimack Valley Conference, or at least close to it. Methuen’s offense seems to have hit its stride. Billerica is coming off a nice win over Tewksbury. This is a fun one…….
Let’s take a quick look around the power rankings, which have been updated through this past weekend’s games. Division 1 What really sticks out is Everett at 4-1 standing at No. 16. The Crimson Tide scheduled two Catholic Conference teams. They lost to Xaverian, 32-21, and beat BC High, 35-34. You would think that would buy Everett some better standing in the rankings, but the Crimson Tide find themselves squarely……
Connecticut Maloney’s Donte Kelly returned two punts for touchdowns (54 and 55 yards) and caught 4 passes for 61 yards and a touchdown in a 41-0 win over Glastonbury. DUDE! West Haven’s Camren Kemp rushed for 156 yards and a 68 yard touchdown in a 47-21 win over Hamden. DUDE! Will Attianese of Granby/Canton: had two fumbles returns for touchdowns and rushed for 186 yards and 3 touchdowns in a……
Once again, there were some results from over this weekend that we didn’t preview, but still deserve special mention. Here are those games that we felt made some waves as we come to the halfway point of the season. Fairhaven 49, Case 6 — Fairhaven is a team we have admittedly been a little late on to this point. One of the top programs on the South Coast, the Blue Devils……
The story on the South Shore this season has been the play of the Hanover Hawks. They started the season with a massive, 28-18 win over Duxbury. Now at 5-0, Hanover is rolling and looking like a state title contender in D5. We called Hanover coach Brian Kelliher to talk about Hanover, the unique coaching situation, and some of the Hawks’ top players. This is an edited version of that……
A couple big results this weekend. St. Paul’s beating Dexter knocks that team out of the top 10. Also, Belmont Hill’s win over St. Sebastian’s made some waves. On to the poll . . . Week 3 Chaos Poll Catholic Memorial (3-1) St. John’s Prep (5-0) Springfield Central (4-1) King Philip (5-0) Xaverian (3-2) Deerfield (3-1) — Fought admirably against loaded Cheshire Academy. Milford (5-0) Williston Northampton (3-1) — Has……
What a week, as Catholic Memorial’s 41-38 win over Xaverian Friday night highlighted the top games of the weekend. With that, CM remains our top team, but we expect more photo finishes over the final half of the season. Some more big showdowns coming, as we are sure to see some more movement. On to the rankings. Week 5 MIAA Top 25 Catholic Memorial (3-1) — That finish won’t be……
BROOKLINE — Coming into Saturday’s trip to Dexter, Evergreen League opponent St. Paul’s was coming off a loss the week before, and about to face an opponent that is high on talent. How much talent? Well, Penn State coach James Franklin came to see the game in person, and watch Nittany Lions verbal commit Liam Andrews in action. Yet, to all that, St. Paul’s said, “So, what?” The Big Red,……
