PATCH BALLOT
It wasn’t an especially tough week to vote for, given the loss by Barrington and most of the other teams holding serve.
The two last selections – Moses Brown and North Kingstown – were really more because of a lack of better options than anything else at this point. Both teams have losses, but also, at least one decent win, so it was either vote for them in the final two spots, or teams that had beat up on really poor programs instead.
