BG's Mante among FCS elite
Yale kicker Tom Mante, a Westford, Mass. resident who played for Bishop Guertin High School, has been named to the All-FCS Second Team by Lindy's 2009 College Football Preview.
Mante (pictured), who will be a senior next season, made 8 of 12 field goals for Yale as a junior, when he also averaged 41.4 yards per kick on 65 punts.
Mante was named Co-MVP of the BG football team following his senior season (2005). He averaged 44.0 yards per punt that season, converted all 47 of his point-after attempts and made two game-winning field goals.
Lindy's placed the University of New Hampshire 10th in its FCS Top 25. UNH tight end Scott Sicko was named to the All-FCS First Team.
In addition, UNH quarterback R.J. Toman was selected as the Colonial Athletic Association's Offensive Player of the Year.
Lindy's picked Dartmouth to finish eighth (last) in the Ivy League.
