Plymouth State running back Jeff Mack has been selected to the D3football.com All-East Region Team. He is one of 75 Division III players from the East Region to be named to the team by the region's sports information directors and the D3football.com staff.

Mack, a 5-foot-11, 208-pound senior who has one season of eligibility remaining, finished second in the New England Football Conference in rushing last season, when he gained 1.353 yards on 242 carries (5.6 yards per carry). He was second in league scoring with 14 touchdowns. Mack (right) was named to the NEFC weekly honor roll four times last season and became the ninth back in school history to rush for more than 1,000 yards in a season.

The 1,353 yards Mack rushed for last season is the third highest single-season total in the program's history. Joe Dudek, who rushed for 1,615 yards in 1985 and 1,378 yards in 1985, is the only Plymouth State back who has rushed for more yards in a single season.

Mack, a former standout at Milford High School, is sixth on Plymouth State's all-time rushing list with 2,165 yards on 426 carries (5.1 ypc). He has run for 23 TDs in his career.

Plymouth State finished the 2007 season with a 9-1 record, its first winning season since 2001. It was the most victories by a Plymouth State team since the 1995 Panthers also finished 9-1.
