(STATS) -- Its rare that FCS programs get to play on a stage as grand as Yankee Stadium, so Fordham and Holy Cross will surely be feeling extra nervous -- or extra motivated.Its gonna be awesome, said Fordham receiver Robbie Cantelli, a New Jersey native and longtime Yankees fan.For Cantellis Rams and star Chase Edmonds, though, theres more at stake than just wanting to win a rivalry game in a renowned venue. The game is vital to the hopes of whether or not their names get called come selection time.Whereas Fordham must defeat the Crusaders on Saturday in the Bronx to keep alive any chance of getting an at-large bid to the FCS playoffs, Edmonds might need a big day to stay in the race for the STATS FCS Walter Payton Award.These Patriot League Football foes first met in 1902, and the annual Ram-Crusader Cup is played in honor of Major Frank W. Cavanaugh -- a World War I veteran who coached both Fordham and Holy Cross. The Crusaders are hosting the game even though its being played a few miles from the Rams campus because it originally was supposed to be held at Holy Cross home in Worcester, Massachusetts.Having the opportunity this year to play a game at Yankee Stadium is something our players will remember long after their football careers are over, Holy Cross director of athletics Nathan Pine said. This will be a special event for everyone involved.It would be made more special for the Crusaders (4-6, 2-3) if they pull off an upset and shut down Edmonds in the process.Fordhams league title hopes went by the wayside last weekend when Lehigh clinched the crown, but the Rams (6-3, 3-1) are far and away the Patriots second-best team. They did receive an at-large bid last season after winning a playoff game in both 2013 and 14, and this years squad has received votes in every single STATS FCS poll.If were an 8-3 football team, the committee is at least going to have to talk about us, Fordham coach Andrew Breiner said.They surely need dominant performances this week and in the season finale at Bucknell to get at-large consideration. Edmonds might need the same to garner one of three finalist spots for the Payton Award despite being the FCS top rusher by a wide margin.Edmonds 1,499 yards put him 284 ahead of second-place Tarik Cohen of North Carolina A&T. Cohen, though, is averaging more yards per carry (7.5 to 7.3) and has rushed for 15 touchdowns while Edmonds remains stuck on 12 after failing to reach the end zone in four straight games. Plus, Cohen has led the Aggies to the No. 10 ranking and an 8-1 record, and there may be room for only one running back among the offensive player of the year finalists.So Edmonds cant afford to have another quiet day as he did last weekend, held to 73 yards on 21 carries in a 24-20 win over a Colgate run defense ranked fourth in the FCS. Plus, he lost a fumble for the second straight week.With all due respect to all the running backs in FCS football, Chase Edmonds is the best running back in FCS football, Breiner said. ... I believe in Chase Edmonds and I will always hand the ball to Chase Edmonds in a critical situation.The junior has totaled 304 rushing yards in two games against the Crusaders. He ran for four touchdowns against them last year, with the last coming in overtime to give Fordham a 47-41 victory.It was the Rams fourth straight win over Holy Cross, though the Crusaders lead the series 27-24-1.

Here are his mid-season NBA awards. MVP: (KEVIN DURANT-Thunder) - Has been sensational this season and more importantly, the most consistent player in the league. Considering that his team has been without star guard Russell Westbrook and with the free agent departure of sharpshooter Kevin Martin, hes had to carry the majority of the load to not only keep his team afloat but more importantly, at an elite level. CHILMARK, Mass. -- When President Barack Obama goes on vacation, he plays a lot of golf. And when he plays, he likes to hang out with big-name basketball players.Five days into his family vacation on Marthas Vineyard, the president has spent four of them hitting the links. While the president rarely plays basketball anymore, he could put together a pretty strong pickup team with his golfing partners if he were so inclined.In his first outing, Obama joined up with Chris Paul of the Los Angeles Clippers. In the second round, it was Stephen Curry of the Golden State Warriors, and in his third and fourth rounds, Obamas foursome included former all-stars Alonzo Mourning and Ray Allen. The latter two were playing partners during last years vacation as well.The round with Curry makes good on Obamas promise of a rematch when the Warriors visited the White House in February to be honored for winning the 2015 NBA championship.I heard during this summer, after our golf game, that Steph was using the excuse of Secret Service being intimidating for why he lost the match, Obama said at the time. That is not the case. But he will have another opportunity.When Obama golfs, a handful of reporters, a camera team and photographers -- known as the pool -- are nearby, usually kept far enough away so the president doesnt see them, and vice versa. But the press was allowed to watch Obama on the first hole on the first day.A skunk livened things up when it waddled by the press van on the second day of golf. No damage was done before it wandered over to an area where the Secret Service was checking cars for bombs before their drivers were allowed to enter the courses parking lot.Many weekends in Washington, Obama also goes golfing, but generally on just one of the days.On Marthas Vineyard, Obama also has gone out twice for dinner. In the town of Oak Bluffs, he dined Sunday evening at Down Island, a new, trendy restaurant that has a $59 prix fixe menu.Executive Chef Scott Cummings told the Cape Cod Times the president shook hands with staff and posed for photos. The menu included island-caught striped bass, roasted carrots, octopus and chocolate pate. Obama tried all the dishes that were brought to him, Cummings said.Hundredss lined the street hoping for a glimpse of the president and first lady, cheering enthusiastically as their motorcade sped away to drop them off on the other side of the island.dddddddddddd Its friendly country for Democrats, though a couple of Trump supporters watched the motorcade Thursday behind a Trump sign.The Clintons also frequented the vineyard during Bill Clintons two terms, and the motorcade passed a permanent sign reading Hoo-rah for Bill. The sign was erected by the late Craig Kingsbury, an eccentric local who was the inspiration for Quint in the movie Jaws. Much of the movie was filmed on the island.For their second dinner out, the Obamas headed back Tuesday to State Road restaurant in West Tisbury, which has become a yearly stop for them. Lobster salad, local greens, striped bass, monkfish, duck breast and cheeseburgers were on the menu.The Obamas have vacationed every year but one on Marthas Vineyard. They generally keep a low profile, and indeed there were few people on the street in West Tisbury when they left the restaurant around 10:30 p.m.On the day Obama didnt golf, he and the first family went to a private beach. The White House said Thursday he and daughter Malia also went for a walk in the morning on a trail near the house the Obamas are renting. The White House doesnt disclose exactly where he is staying, but hes in the same neighborhood of a home the Obamas stayed at in 2014 and 2015. One of the local papers, the Marthas Vineyard Times, describes the home as containing seven bedrooms, nine bathrooms, expansive views of Vineyard Sound, a swimming pool, a hot tub and a dual tennis-basketball court.Obama has added a new event to this years itinerary, a fundraiser Monday for the Democratic National Committee. Meanwhile, Hillary Clinton will be on the island as well on August 20. Her campaign website stated that shell be in Edgartown at the home of Carol and Frank Biondi, a former CEO for Viacom and Universal Studios. Its unclear for now whether the two politicians will spend any time together.---Sara Brown and Peter Brannen contributed to this report. ' ' '
