Here is our second list for our top D2 players of the fall, with second row, lock ... the engine room.

This is always a tough position because when players at this position excel often they get themselves moved. One player here, Vermont's Roman Legere, has played flanker and even in the backs. He's a true rennaissance man. Others have also moved around. We do have one or two players we will list at No. 8 who probably track as locks later on in their career, and we have a player we will list at center who also played lock for his team, and likely will find a happy medium at flanker as he moves on.

So really this list could be a lot longer if we used the "no, dude, you're really a lock" metric. 

These players all performed superbly this season and congratulations to all, no matter what position you end up playing.
