To
look at Anders Overhaug and to listen to him speak,
you would never get the impressionhe´s one
of the best football players in Class C statewide.
The Yarmouth High senior running back and safety
prefers to talk about his team, first and foremost.
Yet to listen to his teammates, you discover Overhaug´s
impact on the Clippers. According to Ben Weinrich,
a senior lineman, "Anders is the epitome of
the perfect leader." Senior guard Jacob French
said simply, "If he had to, Anders could put
the team on his back and carry us." Overhaug
and his teammates will be in the spotlight one more
time Saturday, when the Clippers (11-0) look to
retain their Class C state title against Bucksport
(11-0) at Fitzpatrick Stadium in Portland at 2:36
