First Half Surges Redmen Soccer Past Visiting Wildcats

Tewksbury notched a 2-1 halftime advantage and weathered a Wilmington storm in the second half to snag a win by the same score on Saturday.

For a team battling for playoff positioning, a close victory was critical for the Tewksbury High girls soccer team. The fact that it came against rival Wilmington was just an added bonus.
