JERICKSON FEDRICK (SR., RB) SALEM: Put up good numbers (256 yards rushing and two touchdowns on 19 carries) in a 49-20 loss to Nashua South, but may be hurt by the fact that Salem hasn't been competitive with any of the Division I playoff teams: Pinkerton, Exeter and South.

EMMITT SMITH (SR., RB) PINKERTON: Had his toughest offensive day of the season in Saturday's 25-7 victory over Concord. Smith was held to 39 yards on 11 carries and caught one pass for 14 yards.

KEVIN DAVIES (SR., RB/LB): Rushed for 84 yards on 16 carries against Concord and scored on runs of 4 and 5 yards. May be the best player on the state's best team.

ARMOND McCRAE (SR., SB/DB) NASHUA SOUTH: Has made a strong case for himself during South's six-game winning streak. Rushed for 121 yards and two touchdowns on 20 carries, and also scored on a 7-yard reception in the victory over Salem. Will be facing a tough defense Friday night, when South plays Exeter.

STEVEN DWIGHT (SR., RB/LB) MANCHESTER MEMORIAL: Turned in another strong performance Friday night, when he rushed for 187 yards and three touchdowns in a 40-13 triumph over Nashua North.
