5. Grassfield (5-2, 5-1)- The Grizzlies went on the road and had the most impressive win of all 757 teams last week as they knocked off the undefeated Great Bridge squad. Look for coach Asprey's team to win the rest of their games in the regular season, starting with Hickory this Friday.

10. Hampton (5-2, 4-2) - The Crabbers pulled it out in overtime against Bethel, 20-19, in an exciting game last Friday. Now they play a team who has had their number the past few years in No. 2 Phoebus. This is probably is the biggest rivalry in the 757.
