Division 5 has been pretty even this year in both North and South. We still have six undefeated teams across both sides - Amesbury, Swampscott, Canton, Hanover, Falmouth, Holliston. Here's who I have for our mid-season awards:
Offensive POTY: Payton Doyle, Dennis-Yarmouth
Defensive POTY: Brendan Albert, Canton
Coach of the Year: Colin McQueen, Amesbury
Talent goes just beyond these three nominees. There's plenty of season left to make an impact.Dan Shulman 9/26/2018 10:37:16 PM -

Here at North Andover High as the No. 6 Scarlet Knights get set to take on No. 13 Tewksbury. Great matchup between two top teams in their respective division. Kickoff coming at 6by Karl Capen via twitter 9/28/2018 9:36:04 PM -
Opening touchdown scored by Tewksbury’s Kyle Zervas on a 2-yard run up the middle. Kick by Tyler Keough is good. 7-0 Redmen 6:07 1Qby Karl Capen via twitter 9/28/2018 10:17:49 PM

Back here in Abington for a battle of the unbeatens as the Green Wave hosts Mashpee. Winner will undoubtedly have an edge in the South Shore Tobin Division Title race. Mashpee is riding a state-best 23-game winning streak. Updates for @GlobeSchools . https://pbs.twimg.com/media/DoNvAwqUYAA-H-o.jpg

OMG, warm memories watching Kyle Murphy. What an anvil he was. Some violent hands too.by Brendan C. Hall via twitter 9/28/2018 10:27:17 PM -
Important to note that Cohasset is also 3-0 and tied for first in the SSL Tobin with Mashpee and Abington.
Tons to play for tonight between Abington and Mashpee. Rematch of last year’s D7 South sectional final (Mashpee won 40-20). @GlobeSchoolsby Dan Shulman via twitter 9/28/2018 10:28:54 PM -
At Catholic Memorial (3-0) where the No. 4 Knights host No. 2 Xaverian (2-1) in a premier Catholic Conference tilt.
CM won, 13-12, at Xaverian last year, but X exacted revenge with a 35-7 win in D1 South Final.
