JOE PFAFF DOESN'T like to share, at least when it comes to the Del-Val League championship. The Interboro High senior is a 2-year starter and knows quite well the history of the program. Like the current 11 straight Del-Val titles Interboro has won under coach Steve Lennox - and the fact that the Bucs had a one-third share of the league crown last year with Glen Mills and Chester to continue the streak.

RYAN WOODS could always take the playful teasing, the jaunty back-and-forth with older sisters Jessica and Shannon. They were fast, athletic, like him. They'd just beat him, fair and square, in basketball, or outrun him.

MICHAEL ALWAYS had the speed, Brian was the one with the bulk. The Clancy brothers are only separated by a few years, and because they're so close in age, they always played in the same sports programs.

RONELL WILLIAMS talks a lot of us and we. Never in the singular, as in the Chester 6-1, 225-pound senior middle linebacker is a singular talent who is a one-man wrecking machine. No, it's always in the plural, about what "we" have to do to win, and about "us" coming together as a team.

THE CLOCK IS winding down. There is a long stretch of field Penncrest has to cross to win. There's hardly room for error or indecision. It's no time for nerves to rattle your thoughts. In the last 2 years, that has been Matt Atkinson's time.
