“Respect the ‘T,’” is the slogan that was echoed at Doucette Field on Saturday after Tewksbury High beat Dracut 35-21. Tewksbury ended its MVC Small schedule with a win that set their conference record for 2012 at a healthy 5-0. “Tremendous accomplishment,” said Tewksbury head coach Brian Aylward of the undefeated conference record. “It wasn’t an accomplishment that was done easily. This group has earned every yard that they’ve gotten this year and every win that they’ve gotten.” James Sullivan had a pair of touchdown runs in the win. Eddie Matovu and Tom Casey each had a touchdown run as well, and Johnny Aylward had a 35 yard touchdown pass to Kevin Dick. The Tewksbury offense is racking up yardage, but Aylward and his team have no time …

For the second consecutive year, the Tewksbury High football team is champion of the Merrimack Valley Small Conference. Thanks to a 34-14 beat-down on Methuen Friday night, the Redmen improved to 5-4 overall and 4-0 in the MVC Small. “No one can take that away from you,” Aylward told his team. “But go and take this next game too." After facing Dracut next week and Wilmington on Thanksgiving, Tewksbury will represent their conference in postseason play. “We get the privilege to go and represent our league, but it’s also a responsibility,” said Tewksbury head coach Brian Aylward. Aylward and his Redmen are focused on next week, and not the playoffs. “It’s not going to be a pretty couple weeks if we can’t execute and continue to get better,” …

The Tewksbury High offense exploded for 49 points in the biggest win of their season, a 49-42 barnburner against North Andover on Saturday at Doucette Field. Both teams came into the game with 2-0 records in the Merrimack Valley Small Conference. The winner ended up with a clear path to the MVC Small title. “We have an opportunity to leave our mark here as a group,” said an exasperated head coach Brian Aylward after the bout. “I’m going to be the baldest guy in the league by the end of the year,” he joked, after another high scoring shootout that was memorable experience for spectators. “Both teams had times when they really needed to make plays,” said Aylward. “Our guys ended up making more than the other guys, and that’s what it always…

Tewksbury High scored all of its points in the second half as the Redmen trounced Lawrence 38-20, to celebrate Homecoming at Doucette Field on Saturday afternoon. Down 6-0 at the break, Eddie Matovu returned the second-half kickoff 85 yards for a touchdown to spark a Tewksbury squad that couldn’t get anything going in the first half. After Tom Casey’s two-point conversion, Lawrence fumbled the ensuing kickoff and the Redmen took over at the Lawrence 16. Matovu finished off the drive with a five yard scamper, and Johnny Aylward ran in the two point conversion making it 16-6. “We got some huge plays right out of the gate in the second half,” said Tewksbury head coach Brian Aylward. Matovu finished the afternoon with 89 yards off only eight …

After their best offensive effort of the season, a 41-point outburst against Andover last week, Tewksbury High found the end zone only once in a 16-7 loss to Central Catholic last night at Veterans Memorial Stadium in Lawrence. “That was a frustrating one,” said Tewksbury head coach Brian Aylward. After slicing the Andover defense for six touchdowns last week, the Redmen offense left a lot to be desired against Central Catholic, who improved their record to 5-1. Meanwhile, Tewksbury fell to 2-4. The battle in the trenches decided this one, as the Tewksbury offensive line could not contain Central's three man defensive front. “I thought they were very good up front, and that posed some problems for us,” said Aylward. “We knew that those …

Tewksbury High picks up first wins of the season on the road against MVC rival.
High school students don't do any noticeable growing over just six days. But growing up? That's another story. Friday night in Haverhill, the young Tewksbury High football team did what they couldn't do at home last week against Lincoln-Sudbury -- close out a win in the fourth quarter. James Sullivan scored from five yards out with 1:39 left to play and the Redmen defense shut down the high-flying Hillies' attack, en route to a 30-22 win in the MVC opener for both teams. The game was eerily reminiscent of the Redmen's game at Haverhill, won by the Hillies in the final minute. The game Friday was tied, 14-14 at halftime and 22-22 after three quarters before Tewksbury was able put things away. "I'm hoping it was just a matter of gaining …
