The 165 pound senior is a strong all league candidate while Rollins is five pounds heavier than Fauber. Chapin misses most of practice due to illness so Meisler or Fresch will handle snaps. Fell anchors Mack spot in Norwalk 4 5 defense and Haines and Ross compete for end and back roles. Coach Minkowski draws potential out and the Truckers look to avoid eighth place.
