The list of candidates for the WGAM 2007 Mr. Football Award was trimmed from 15 players to five Thursday. This year's winner will be one of the following players: Bill Ferriter (Nashua South), Josh Lane (Pinkerton Academy), Brett McAllister (Exeter), Alex Theodosi (Londonderry) or Bruce Vieira (Pelham).
Four of the five finalists are seniors. Vieira is a junior. McAllister, Lane and Vieira each led their team to a state championship last season. Pinkerton beat Nashua South for the Division I title; Exeter edged Bishop Guertin in the Division II championship game; and Pelham beat Gilford for the Division V championship.
The winner will be announced next Thursday at The Hilton Garden Inn in Manchester. Each finalist will be interviewed by WGAM before the winner is announced shortly after 6 p.m.
Voting for the award is conducted by selected media members.
