1 Cushing (1) 12-0-1 Penguins can't get off the ground against Berkshire G Jeff Pietrasiak.
2 Taft (2) 6-2-1 Lance Odden achieves immortality; could Mike Maher be next? 
3 Westminster (3) 10-1 Loss to Taft is Westy's first in 342 days, breaking an 18-0-1 streak.
4 Deerfield (4) 10-1 Big Green whips Loomis, 11-2; T-P, 7-1. No one benefits from playing these games. Next up: KUA.     
5 St. Sebastian's (7) 8-0-1 Skilled -- and gaining confidence.  
6 Lawrence (5) 10-3 Couldn't get it going at Nobles on Wed.
7 Berkshire (9) 10-2-2 Tied Taft last month; Cushing this month.
8 Exeter (6) 7-3 Bad week!
9 Nobles (10) 8-4-1 Seniors McManama, MacDonald, and Clapton putting up the numbers.
