THE END ZONE
Players to Watch
Cam Colwell, Xaverian Brothers: The 6-foot-5, 270-pound two-way lineman already has an offer from Tulane.
Mike Delaney, Foxborough: The 6-foot-3, 215-pounder is a beast in the backfield and getting Division 1 looks.
Ryan Izzo, Walpole: The 5-foot-8, 160-pound dynamo has an opportunity to stand atop the state’s all-time rushing and scoring charts by the end of the season. He committed to play lacrosse at UMass this past week.
Aaron Kramer, Duxbury: The 6-foot-7, 270-pound tackle is the son of a former Notre Dame lineman and could join his cousin Jack Shields, the starting center at the University of Virginia.
Albert Louis-Jean, Brockton: The 15-year-old defensive back already has an offer from Boston College after starting all 12 games as a sophomore.
Dom Wooten, Norwell: One of the only bright spots on an 0-11 team last season, Wooten is a 6-foot-6, 220-pound receiver being courted by Texas-El Paso, Boston College, Northeastern, UMass, and Harvard.
