This clipping is from the Scoreboard page of the Worcester Telegram & Gazette's Sports section, from Wednesday, November 30. Holy Cross football players earned several spots on the "Worcester Area Football Association 15th Annual All-Star Team".If anyone knows who comprises that association, please comment. The "All-Stars" are mostly from HC, WPI, Assumption, Fitchburg State and Worcester State. Personally, I don't really understand this type of system. It's nice to have the regional recognition, but how can you compare Division One athletes with those from Nichols or Assumption?
Same question goes for the T&G's "College Cup," or whatever it is they call it. Once a week during each athletic season, they publish a list of "college standings" with the combined records of the various athletic teams for the area colleges. Holy Cross is usually in the middle of the pack. I'm curious who attaches real value to those standings.
Nevertheless, getting back to this clipping, congrats to Steve Silva and Dan Adams for sweeping the Offensive and Defensive POY awards, and to O'Neil, Silva, Dugan, Gruber, LaGrenade, Schoepfer, Cannon, Pinard, Adams and Gough for netting spots on their respective First Teams.
