Before they headed to their Thanksgiving Day dinners, the Tewksbury footbal team chowed down on a heaping plate of Wildcat.

The Redmen dominated their annual Turkey Bowl tilt against Wilmington, earning an 18-6 victory on Thursday.

Eddie Matovu got the ball rolling when he cracked the scoreboard on a five-yard dash with 6:19 to play in the first quarter.

With four seconds left in the first half, quarterback Johnny Aylward opened the game up a bit more with a 40-yard dash on a drive that began with a fumble recovery by captain Christian Taylor.

Then with 3:51 to go in the third quarter, James Sullivan put the game out of reach when he bruised ahead for a one-yard score, giving his team an 18-0 lead.
