Who's up and who's down

Can't Stop Won't Stop

The North Smithfield/Mount St. Charles Academy offense has been a force to be reckoned with this season, and last week was no different. It put the hurt on Scituate with a conclusive 46 - 6 victory. The Scituate defense has struggled this season (giving up an average of 31 points per game), and North Smithfield/Mount St. Charles Academy took advantage of that. With eight consecutive wins, North Smithfield/Mount St. Charles Academy boasts the longest winning streak of any team in the rankings.

This Week's Big Showdown

One of the hottest tickets last week involved the clash between East Greenwich (7th in the power rankings) and Mt. Hope (11th). East Greenwich finished its game with a 17 - 6 win. One of the main ringleaders for it was junior Conrad Swanson, who earned one touchdown and 105 yards rushing the ball.

Game of Inches

The title of the most exciting match of the week goes to the clash between Cumberland and Moses Brown. Cumberland battled it out with Moses Brown for a well-earned 15 - 14 overtime win. The victory boosted Cumberland a satisfying four spots in the power rankings.

Next Week's Big Game

If you are itching to watch a first-rate contest, no game is supposed to fit the bill better than the one between Woonsocket (6th in the power rankings) and Westerly (2nd). The teams have their eyes fixed on the championship after last-week playoff conquests. Westerly and Woonsocket can't both win again this week, so we'll learn on Saturday which team falters and which extends its success.
