             The Skinny

1 Deerfield (1) 14-1 There are some underrated players on this team... seriously.
2 Cushing (3) 12-1-1 Will try to avenge their sole loss when they host Exeter on Saturday
3 St. Paul's (4T) 14-1 Best campus in the USHR Top 10 -- placid ponds, sylvan woods. 
4 Exeter (4T) 8-1-2 Tabor (a loss and a tie) drives them crazy.
5 Salisbury (2) 12-3-1 The Steaks couldn't get it done vs. Penguins. 
6 Taft (6) 12-2 Not named for the heaviest U.S. president (300 + lbs.), but, rather, his brother Horace. 
7 Tabor (7) 9-5-2 Have Exeter's number, but not many others'.  
8 St. Sebastian's (8) 8-3 They play at Lawrence on Friday -- should be an OK tilt.
9 Lawrence (9) 10-6 Outdoor rinks reveal character, so check out the crowd. 
10 Berkshire (10) 14-6 Dust-up with Winchendon leaves Bears five players short for Wed. game vs. Canterbury.
