Another great week of high school football is in the books; plenty of great individual performances, some interesting results, and lots of reasons to be proud of your local schools. Here are some of the highlights:
*Peter Flynn’s Billerica Indians (4-0) prove they’re for real with a 34-27 victory over Andover
*Lowell’s struggles continue during a 13-7 overtime loss at Westford. The concussion suffered by star QB Ryan Welch didn’t help the cause, but what’s wrong with the Red Raiders?
*Chelmsford sends notice that they’ll have to be reckoned with after a convincing 28-6 win over previously unbeaten Tewksbury. The Lions (2-0 conference record) are tied with Billerica atop the MVC. Central Catholic (1-0) is ½ game behind.
*A late game TD pass from Colin Halloran to Tom Sullivan followed by Halloran's 2-pt. conversion toss to Mike DePasquale gives Tyngsboro its first ever Dual County League victory, 29-28 over Concord-Carlisle
*Wilmington, Shawsheen and Greater Lawrence remain undefeated at 4-0. Wilmington coach Bob Almeida joined in to SunTalk Live last night to preview the upcoming against powerhouse Masconomet (4-0). Click here to listen to the show audio
*The Bishop Guertin Express rolls on, 41-14 over Alvirne. Can Tony Johnson’s Cardinals be stopped?

*Sun Stars of the Week showcases the top performers

I will start by saying I am not a big High School sports fan or follower, but with that being said I am Very Glad to see my alma mater CHS is doing very well once again. Even though I am always anti Lowell when it comes to sports I am sorry to hear about Ryan Welch's concussion thats too bad. Sorry for him, but GO LIONS!

I am Not a Fan of Lowell Sports, but I do Hope that Red Raiders Star QB Ryan Welch is feeling much better soon.
