Fenerty's stats for his junior year are almost as impressive. He averaged 20 carries per game and 5.8 yards per carry. He had seven consecutive 100-yd. rushing games, and finished the season with 1211 yards on the ground.
Fenerty broke his own record for total yards, and became the first player in Holy Cross history to have back-to-back 1000-yd. years. He only scored five touchdowns for the season, one less than he had managed in the Columbia game the previous year.
He was elected to the Associated Press Third Team All-American for the second straight year and was elected Honorable Mention All-East. He finished the season seventh in rushing and fourteenth in all-purpose yardage nationally.
So far this year, Fenerty has again been a dominant force in Eastern football. In the Crusaders' game against Army Saturday, he went over the 1000-yd. mark for the third straight season, another personal--and Holy Cross--milestone.
With three games reamining in the season, Fenerty has 202 rushes for 1089 yards, 312 yards on pass receptions and has scored four touchdowns.
There is little doubt that Fenerty will be selected in the NFL draft in the spring. Scouts predict that Fenerty's biggest pro potential is as a kick returner.
In the meantime, however, the Thrill will be looking to provide a little more excitement up in Worcester
