Pete’s Top-10: Eagles soar to No. 1 spot

It’s week three of the poll and we have a new top team, but maybe Nazareth should have been at the top all along.

With quarterback Sonny Sasso being the top signal caller in the conference, it’s no surprise they’ve jumped out to an impressive start.

Northampton keeps making the case that it might actually give the big boys in the EPC South a run for their money in the postseason, while Bangor continues to play well in Colonial action.
