Apparently La Salle's struggles with Rogers, which held the defending state champion to two touchdowns on Friday night, didn't scare voters, who kept the Rams in the No. 1 spot. Barrington continues to roll over opponents and stayed in the No. 2 spot. Things will come to a head this Friday, though, when Portsmouth, which dropped one spot after a two-point loss to No. 5 East Providence, hosts La Salle.
Middletown cruised past Central Falls, but the Islanders dropped a spot in the poll. Still, it is the top team in Division IV. Cranston West had the biggest jump in the week, going from No. 18 to No. 12. Tiverton, meanwhile, moved back into the poll at No. 19 after getting bounced last week.

The question has been posed: Who is going to win the Thanksgiving Day showdown between Portsmouth and Middletown.
This early into the season, I'm not quite certain. I think Portsmouth (which already has impressed me) is going to get better and better as it gets more comfortable with Chuck Phillips' system. The Islanders, on the other hand, go as Rico McCray goes ... and he goes quite a bit.
It'll be close one way or the other, giving both red- and blue-clad fans something to talk about over dinner.
I really love reading articles that has lots of knowledge to impart. I admire those writers who share the best of their knowledge in writing such articles. Keep up the good work and continue inspiring readers.Thank you so much.
