How They Fared: Week 6 Top 10

Here's how the state's best made out this weekend.

1. Xaverian (5-1) Lost to #2 Everett - The Hawks played great football for three quarters, but faltered during crunch time.  Don't look for them to make this losing thing a habit.
2. Everett (5-0) Beat #1 Xaverian - Everett will be back in a familiar place in everybody's rankings: #1
3. Brockton (5-1) Beat Pinkerton (NH) - As quarterback Paul Mroz progresses, this team will become tougher and tougher to beat.
4. Gloucester (6-0) Beat Masconomet - The closeness of this score is sure to raise some eyebrows.  
5. St. Johns Shrewsbury (6-0) Beat St. Johns Prep - Great game for SJS from beginning to end.  Let the SJS-Xaverian hype begin.  
6. Methuen (5-1) Beat Haverhill -This defense has dealt with every challenge thrown their way, handling their opponent this week in dominant fashion. 
7. Falmouth (5-0) - Idle 
8. Mansfield (5-1) Beat Attleboro - This game shouldn't have been one sided.  Attleboro has a very good team.  What does that say about Hornets then?
9. Weymouth (6-0) Beat Newton North - The beat goes on for the Wildcats.  Look for them to keep mauling teams until their Thanksgiving showdown with Walpole.  
10. Longmeadow (5-1) Beat Central - No post-big game letdown for the Lancers.  They hammered Central Friday night.
