HIGH SCHOOL SPORTS MAGAZINE W W W. T E L E G R A M . C O M / H O M E T E A M EDITOR’S NOTE Hometeam Big games bigger this year A few years ago, the MIAA opened its tournaments to every team, resulting in winless ones playing postseason games. This year’s football playoff format — eight teams in three divisions qualifying — doesn’t go quite that far, but it does little to reward the best teams. What it does, however, is add importance to some Thanksgiving games. As if they weren’t big enough, right? This year, many holiday rivalries will determine bragging rights and what teams advance to Tuesday’s playoffs. Take the St. John’s vs. St. Peter-Marian game, for example. In past seasons, the Guardians would be playing for pride tomorrow, despite their 7-3 record. This year, though, they can qualify for the Division 1 playoffs with a win over the mighty Pioneers. If SPM doesn’t pull off the upset, it would likely open the door for the winner of the Shrewsbury-Milford game to get the final spot. And speaking of spots — determined by power rankings that few understand — the winner of tomorrow’s best game, No. 1 Wachusett vs. No. 4 Holy Name, will surely improve its playoff position. The problem is, even if the Naps beat the Mountaineers, they may not play each other again in the playoffs, which will seed teams 1 vs. 8, 2 vs. 7, 3 vs. 6 and 4 vs. 5 in a two-game tournament. After Tuesday, if the seeds hold, it will be 1 vs. 4 and 2 vs. 3 in Super Bowls. At the end, two teams in each division will be left standing. No doubt, the flawed format will be changed before next season. Still, did we mention the current system makes Thanksgiving games more important? While Fitchburg likely needs to beat rival Leominster to stay in the postseason hunt, the logjam fighting for the final Division 2 spots includes Grafton, Millbury, Leicester and Shepherd Hill. Then there’s the question of what 10-0 team will get the top stop — Auburn or David Prouty? Confused? You’re not alone. In Division 3, the winner of the Narragansett vs. Murdock game is in the playoffs, while the loser must hope Maynard doesn’t upset Clinton or Hudson doesn’t beat Marlboro. Of course, anything is possible on Thanksgiving. Especially this year.

Last year: Southbridge, 33-0. Series: Southbridge, 47-39-2. his year’s clash is shaping up to be a great one as both teams are playoff bound and are playing to increase their standing in the Division 2 postseason. The Pioneers snapped the Indians’ four-game streak with a shutout win last year, but the Indians have plenty of firepower heading into this year’s matchup. Senior quarterback Donovan Biron has thrown for more than 1,000 yards, while sophomore all-star Rocco Distefano has emerged as one of the top young backs in the area, rushing for 749 yards. Senior Justin Sundara is a top target on both sides of the ball, gaining 417 yards receiving and also picking off seven passes. You have to bring your “A” game to beat the Indians, as Bartlett’s three losses have come to strong teams in Auburn, David Prouty and Northbridge. The Pioneers are hoping to add to that list, as Southbridge has been led by a trio of solid backs in Jamie Ortiz (759 rushing yards), Hashian Rosario (635) and Jose Rosario (415). The Pioneers have a find in junior QB Josh MacNeil, who has passed for nearly 800 yards. 14 Alexander Gilliard Fr. T So. Stephen M.

Series: Clinton leads, 30-19-1. fter going 3-19 over his first three seasons, coach Paul Constantino has his Division 3A champion Gaels gunning under his Delaware Wing-T, and getting back at the Tigers for last year’s tough loss would be a fine way to enter the postseason. Under former St. Peter-Marian coach Justin Ball as offensive coordinator, Clinton has been a threat for the big-gainer whenever touching the ball. Philip Nobrega (745 yards, 11 TDs), senior Josue Guerra (719, 9) and junior Joe Rice (654, 7) are all averaging about 10 yards a carry. Defensively, however, is where these Gaels have really Clinton junior running back turned things around, allowing only 78 points Joe Rice after yielding 263 last year. Senior linebacker Andrew Holfinger — the Division 3A Defensive MVP — has eight QB sacks among his 98 tackles, and junior defensive end Jon Arnone has added 61⁄2 sacks. Rice has six interceptions and Cody Trautner four. Under first-year coach Kevin Capone, the Tigers are averaging nearly 25 points a game. Senior running back Jake Tyler needs 78 yards for 1,000 rushing, and junior multiple threat Jack Sprague (13 touchdowns) could pass 1,000 all-purpose yards, and he averages 18.3 yards a catch. Senior Jason Silva has thrown for eight TDs, could finish with more than 1,000 yards, and he has picked off four passes. Senior linebacker Brian King leads Central Mass. with 128 tackles.

The Panthers head into the game following their biggest victory of the year, 22-20 in overtime over Leominster. Senior A.C. Carter, the Division 1B Offensive MVP, already has Division 1 offers from Holy Cross and the University of San Diego, which is no surprise considering he is one of the top shutdown defensive backs in Central Mass. He has 989 rushing yards and nearly 400 receiving yards. Carter and quarterback A.J. Scerra (492 rushing yards) provide a formidable attack, while speedster Evan Purvis can spark the air attack. Senior Neal Vigeant, the league Defensive MVP, leads a solid defense that has allowed only 109 points. With a five-game losing streak, the Hawks know handing their archrivals their first loss will make their season a success. Karl Sery leads the ground game with 676 yards, while Dana Barry and Jake Wardwell can carry the load if needed. Barry has thrown for more than 1,100 yards, with Brandon Payne-Drouin and Wes Pellerin his top targets. Nick Schwall, the Hawks’ lone all-star, leads the offensive line.

So. Coach: Bill Long 57th Thanksgiving meeting 10:15 a.m., Dick Walsh Field, Northboro Radio: None. Last year: Westboro, 27-6. Series: Westboro leads, 36-19-1. t’s been a long season for the Tomahawks, who graduated 17 players from last year’s team and went up against six ranked squads, and they’d like nothing better than to stun the Rangers at home. Junior Kyle McGinnity replaced three-year starter Mike Vulcano at quarterback and proved to be a two-way threat, rushing for more than 600 yards and four touchdowns and passing for more than 500 yards and five scores. His prime target is senior Adam Scopetski (10.7 yards per catch, 2 TDs). The Rangers are in the middle of the playoff hunt. Senior Eric Thomas won the QB job, replacing graduated two-way threat Brian Gove, and has completed about half of his passes for 775 yards and five TDs. Westboro has power in its backfield, led by senior Tucker Brady (82 carries, 643 yards, 10 TDs).

Wachusett is 10-0 and ranked No. 1 in the Hometeam media poll. Holy Name is 9-1 and ranked fourth. Last year the Mountaineers defeated the outmanned Naps handily on Thanksgiving, only to lose the postseason rematch, 16-10, as Holy Name advanced to the Super Bowl, which it won. Bad blood? You bet. As always, the Naps will run, run and run some more. Division 1C MVP Billy Derosier is the horse with 126 carries for 1,216 yards and 13 TDs. Shawn Kelly has 94 carries for 732 yards and nine TDs, while freshman Quron Wright has 63 carries for 703 yards and 17 TDs, and Kevin Donohue 76 carries for 552 yards and seven TDs. Wachusett also has a 1,000-yard rusher in Division 1A Offensive MVP Matt Pedone (13 TDs), who is backed up by Eric Darko (88 carries, 726 yards, 12 TDs). The Mountaineers also boast a stingy defense, led by all-stars Casey Devereaux and Gary White, while Connor McDavitt is one of the top kickers around.

Last year: St. John’s, 28-6. Series: St. John’s leads, 50-27-7. hile the Pioneers have been impressive in winning eight games and have dominated this series in recent years, the Guardians promise to make things difficult while trying to secure a postseason berth. Senior running back Daiquan Yarrell eclipsed 1,000 yards rushing in Week 9. Quarterback Lamar Edmunds progressed behind an experienced line, and has passed for 10 touchdowns. His top target is junior wide receiver Gavin O’Neil, who averages 29 yards a catch with seven TDs. This offense continues to thrive on big plays, as senior tight end Kyle Brenner goes nearly 20 yards per reception with three scores. But defense has made St. PeterMarian a winner. Brenner, a defensive end, has 104 tackles, while Edmunds (6 interceptions) and all-stars Mike McGee and Jordan Knowles (121⁄2 sacks) are among the CMass statistical leaders. St. John’s is trying to extend its Turkey Day winning streak to seven. Junior Richard Rodgers has hauled in 15 scoring passes, with senior QB Griffin Murphy delivering. Murphy, a league all-star, has thrown for 23 touchdowns and more than 1,600 yards, and has rushed for over 500 yards. Juniors Chris Dulmaine (19 catches, 339 yards, 4 TDs) and all-star Dan Light (15, 325, 2) are other favored targets. On defense, Tim Wickstrom (55) and all-stars Shane McGrail (51) and Troy Moore (45) are the Pioneers’ leading tacklers. Rodgers, the Division 1A Defensive MVP, has four interceptions.

QB/LB So. 5 Tyrie Osby TB/LB Radio: WEIM-AM (1280). Last year: Fitchburg, 20-17. Series: Leominster leads, 50-46-7. his year, the oldest Thanksgiving matchup in the area pits two teams with something to prove against each other. Leominster is trying to rebound from a 22-20 loss overtime loss to Marlboro, after posting an impressive win against Shrewsbury. Fitchburg had a tough time containing Gardner’s ground game last time out, losing, 24-14, after leading, 14-0, to drop to .500. That, combined with some leftover emotion from last year’s overtime contest should make this one a game to watch. The teams have fared similarly against most common opponents, both having beaten North Middlesex and Algonquin, while falling to Brockton, Wachusett and St. John’s. The only difference is the Red Raiders fell to Shrewsbury, 10-0. The Red Raiders’ offense has been led recently by backs Steph’fon Teague and Tyrie Osby, who have stepped up with starting back Byron Teague sidelined the last two games with a quadriceps injury.

Under new coach Jeff Parcells, the Pirates are finding their way on offense, and most of their key skill position players will be back next season. Junior co-captain Nick Tessier has rushed for 1,207 yards and 12 touchdowns. Kayvon Lewis is averaging more than 20 yards on his 12 receptions, while junior Jeff Bolio has thrown for around 500 yards. Look for junior defensive back Dan Klein on the pass rush — he has six sacks this season. The Rockets, who won last year’s Division 2A Super Bowl, are trying to extend their Thanksgiving Day winning streak to 10. The Rockets’ backfield features a pair of Division 2A all-stars in seniors Brian Desimone (926 yards) and Brenden VanBeekom (650 yards, 7 TDs, 94 points). Quarterback Marcus Backlin has completed better than 50 percent of his passes, mostly to Steve Wallace and Antonio Leatham.

Although the Panthers got shut out, sophomore Zach Grasis had 115 rushing yards, becoming the school’s first sophomore to surpass 1,000 yards. Grasis has done much better than that as a junior, rushing for more than 1,700 yards and earning the Division 2B Offensive MVP. The Panthers have ridden Grasis to an undefeated record (10-0, 6-0 Division 2B) and they have scored more than 30 points in every game except one, a 28-13 defeat of Millbury. Defensive MVP Christian Ricard leads a solid unit. Leicester has also experienced success this season in coach Tim Griffiths’ return to the sideline. The Wolverines were 4-5, 3-2 (before Friday’s game) and could present a defensive challenge for the Panthers, having only allowed 30 points once. Three times they have kept an opponent under 10 points.

C O M / H O M E T E A M COVER STORY Inspiration RICK CINCLAIR Chris Reusch’s jersey hangs on a fence that surrounds Clinton’s practice field, a reminder of a player who would’ve been the Gaels’ starting center this season. Clinton High players, coaches remember Chris Reusch with words, wins By Paul Jarvey W ill Reusch pulls his twin brother’s helmet from his locker, tucks it under his arm and heads to the field. He has done this every practice and every game, home and away, since the Clinton High football season started in August, part of a set of rituals the team follows to remember and draw inspiration from Chris Reusch, who was killed in a car accident as he and friends returning from a snowboarding trip to Vermont last December. Will Reusch carries the helmet to midfield for the pregame for the coin toss, Chris Reusch having been appointed a captain by coach Paul Constantino as an acknowledgement of the unusual sacrifice the lineman made during his junior season last year. Izzy Feliz, a senior co-captain along with Cam Lucci and Will Reusch, carries Chris’s practice jersey to the field. A hooded sweatshirt with the number 75 and “Reusch” on the back accompanies the jersey, another physical reminder of a player who would’ve been Clinton’s starting center this season. “It’s a really big deal for me and for a lot of other guys,” Will Reusch said. “We were really close. We said we were going to play hard not only for ourselves and each other this year, but for my brother because he couldn’t be here.” W W W. T E L E G R A M . C O M / H O M E T E A M CENTRAL MASS. HIGH SCHOOL SPORTS MAGAZINE 19 COVER STORY RICK CINCLAIR Will Reusch places his twin brother’s helmet next to his jersey before a recent practice. Constantino awarded Chris Reusch the game ball after the Gaels’ opening win over Narragansett, and teammates immediately brought it to his grave in Reservoir Pines Cemetery. “You definitely feel his presence, you really do,” Constantino said. “I firmly believe he is with us, his spirit is with us.” He told his players at the start of the season to think about Chris when times get tough and draw strength from his memory. They have done just that. “It pushes us to go harder, go farther,” Will Reusch said. “We appreciate what we have knowing my brother couldn’t be here. We play with him inside us.” Will Reusch played both ways against Narragansett and by the fourth quarter was gassed. He said he threw up on the field, but he thought about his brother and made two sacks late in the game to help seal the victory. “The Oakmont game, we were all tired and weary in the huddle,” Feliz said. “I just got in the middle and said, ‘Just remember who you’re playing for, ask for that inner strength.’ Luckily, that gave us a little extra strength, and we drove down the field, and we scored.” And won. It was the biggest victory of the season, putting Clinton in first place in their division. After going 0-11 two years ago and 3-8 last year, the Gaels go into their Thanksgiving game against Maynard 9-1, the only blemish a loss to Nashoba. They will head into the playoffs as the Division 3A champions. The inspiration provided by a fallen teammate has been a factor. “We have an advantage over every team because they don’t have anything like that to play for,” Lucci said. “We just work hard every day in practice because we know he’s over there practicing with us. We know he’d want us to work hard, so that’s what we do.” It has been an emotional season for the Gaels, who also have had to deal with the loss in September of one of last year’s cheerleaders in another car crash. They have handled it well. “There’s some sadness, but it’s more joy because we look at it like we’re doing it for him,” Will Reusch said. “We’re playing and being successful because of my brother. We look at it like he’s out there with us.” Clinton isn’t the first team to be rocked by tragedy or to keep physical reminders of a fallen teammate close by for inspiration. The Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim did the same thing when 22-year-old pitcher Nick Adenhart was killed in a car crash last spring. There is an element that makes the Chris Reusch story special, though. Constantino still gets choked up when he talks about it. It’s why he appointed Chris Reusch a captain, a decision not made for emotional or sentimental reasons, but for what his player did last year. Chris McCrell, now at Nichols College, was a co-captain in 2008. He was limited by a degenerative hip condition, but because of his determination and hard work, Constantino and his assistants agreed that he deserved to be the starting center. It was the right thing to do. The decision, though, meant that Chris Reusch wouldn’t be a starter and would get less playing time. That part bothered Constantino. He talked to his player about the situation several times, including the day before last Thanksgiving. “He stopped me in mid sentence, and put his arm on my shoulder and said, ‘Coach, don’t worry, you did the right thing. He deserved to play. I have next year,’” Constantino said. Three weeks later, assistant coach Tony Gannon, overcome with grief, called to say that Chris Reusch had died. “When he said, ‘I have next year,’ it just hit me,” Constantino said. “Whenever I got the call, I said, ‘He’s going to have next year.’ ” PA G E PA G E 20 CENTRAL MASS.

Series: Ayer leads, 7-5. he Tigers have kept themselves in the middle of the Division 3 playoff picture by doing things right on each side of the ball. Offensively, sophomore Connor Reardon has exploded onto the scene, leading Littleton’s ground game with 12 touchdowns. He has been complemented by a passing game led by senior all-star quarterback Adam Whitcomb, who can also take off on the ground. His favorite receiver is classmate and Division 3B Offensive MVP James Williamson, who also has been a big contributor on defense. He and Defensive MVP Derek Karr have consistently ranked among the top tacklers in Central Mass. throughout the season. All-stars Mac Hanlon and John Williamson will also help the Tigers. Ayer remains in a rebuilding phase since its co-op agreement with Groton-Dunstable ended two seasons ago. The Panthers have had bright spots this season in running back Dashawn Taylor (12 TDs) and all-star lineman Devon Sedor and Jake Seeley. Ayer is looking for its first win since a season-opening victory over Hyde Park.

Athol, whose only blemish in a 9-1 season was a three-point loss to Frontier, is led by quarterback Eric LaFountain, who has run for 776 yards and nine touchdowns and passed for 15 scores. Athol’s attack also features Jack O’Connell (497 yards rushing, 5.5 per carry, 5 TDs), Matt Kuniholm (394 yards, 8.9 per carry, 5 TDs rushing, 4 receiving) and Tyler Hood (34 catches, 13.3 yards per catch, 9 TDs receiving, 2 rushing). The Red Raiders will be out to avenge last year’s home loss to the Senators. Athol had won the three previous years. Brian Beauchemin keyed Mahar’s effort last Thanksgiving, running for 123 yards and a pair of touchdowns. He will be trying to help preserve the Senators’ undefeated season this time. He has had a terrific year, including a 335-yard, five-TD effort against Sci-Tech last month. Beauchemin and teammate Isaiah Jones have each run for more than 1,000 yards this season.

Last year: Doherty, 42-6. Series: Burncoat leads, 6-4. his game will mark the last time Yawin Smallwood suits up for Doherty before playing for the University of Connecticut next season. The talented senior has had a tough year, dealing with a dislocated finger and a mild concussion, but he proved he is still a presence when he took the field. Curtis Hickson has picked up the slack, as the senior earned the Division 1C Defensive MVP award and has been the team’s leading receiver. He is among the Central Mass. leaders in both tackles and sacks, and has also returned an interception for a touchdown. The Highlanders have a strong line, led by Kevin Kohl and Angelo Moraitis. Burncoat also will say goodbye to all-star Jonathan Winbush, who will play his final game. The Patriots also have a talented wideout in Randy Quartey, while all-star defensive lineman Richie Asifiri will make the Highlanders work. Burncoat’s biggest weapon might be quarterback Kenny Bates, the Division 1C Offensive MVP, who is coming off a memorable game against South. The senior returned an interception for a touchdown, passed for another and ran for one more, all in the second quarter. 46 Adam Goldstein E So. 88 Mike Adu E Jr. So. T Jr. Fr. So.

The Spartans, however, have emerged dominant and won 10 straight Thanksgiving meetings. It took a fourth-quarter comeback last year for Oakmont to keep the streak going. The Spartans have scored more than 40 points seven times, including three 50-plus performances. They have three players — Eric Howlett, the injured Seth Sheridan and Jon Jacobs — who have placed in the top 10 in scoring in Central Mass. The Spartans scored 400 points this season when Holy Name was the only other local school to even reach 300. Howlett, the Division 3A Offensive MVP, can catch, run and kick for the Spartans. Quarterback Luke Bakanowsky has weapons in fellow all-stars Jacobs and TE John Mattus. The Wildcats have a top scorer of their own in all-star running back Jamison Craft, who is only a sophomore. He has surpassed 1,200 yards in offense this season, rushing for over 900 and getting more than another 300 receiving. All-star lineman Luke Kondrotas and Rob Harasimowicz lead the way. Junior QB Steve Guercio has eclipsed 1,000 yards passing Oakmont senior wide receiver Eric Howlett for the year.

Quarterback Nate Theodoss, also an all-star DB, has six TD passes. Senior all-star linebacker Tyler Jordan, sophomore outside linebacker Kristian Jackson and senior defensive end Michael D’Amico, all with more than 60 tackles, will keep the pressure on Scarlet Hawks QB Tommy Leung. Milford is hoping to rebound from a heartbreaking loss to Nashoba, where the Chieftains scored 29 points in 15 minutes to get the win. Leung, a senior three-year starter, has thrown for more than 1,100 yards and 10 TDs for the second straight year. He is one of the area’s top signal-callers. Leung has completed better than 60 percent of his passes in each of the past two seasons. His prime targets include senior Matt Cristino and senior Brett Kane. To gain the tough yards, Leung will hand off to senior Elias Giokas and Nick Valente, who are both averaging about 5 yards a rush.

Last year: West Boylston, 36-19. Series: West Boylston, 4-2. he Lions have won the last two Thanksgiving meetings. Last year, the Lions took advantage of five turnovers to cruise to a Reservoir Bowl win. West Boylston has been led by a strong senior class, including running backs Rob Lombardi and Jeremiah O’Toole and captains Jeremy Phelps, Tim Brown, Jimmy Gore and Mike Pusateri. The future looks bright with sophomore running back Colby Bostek getting some big carries down the stretch, and sophomore quarterback Dan Polnerow and junior returner Josh Igwenagu in the mix. Quabbin is coming off a 13-10 win over Tantasqua, as Chris O’Rourke ran 14 yards for a touchdown with 48 seconds left to stun the Warriors. Sophomore quarterback Kenny Goodnow threw for 191 yards against Tantasqua and has more than 500 passing yards this year. His top target has been Jon Kenyon (270 yards), while senior Tyler Przypek has rushed for 267 yards. 18 Matt Skalski SE/DB Sr. 23 Justin Beshia RB/LB Jr. T Jr. 24 Brady Bryan SE/DB Sr. 30 Alek Carlson QB/LB Jr. 32 Nick Martinez RB/DB So. 33 Ryan Morris FB/DB 34 Rob Lombardi RB/DB Sr. West Boylston sophomore running back Colby Bostek 37 Vinnie Green RB/DB So. 64 Tyler O’Day T/DT Fr. 38 Shay de Rivera RB/DE Jr. 66 Cameron Gaskin C/DT Fr. 40 Jacob Peterson TE/DE 70 Joey Fitton G/DT 8 42 Josh Igwenagu RB/DB Jr. 71 Ahmed Abdeljaber T/DT Sr. 43 Shawn Harlow TE/DE Jr. 72 Matt Nishan T/DT Jr. 44 Mike Pace FB/LB Fr. 73 David Passmore T/DT So. 48 Colby Bostek RB/LB So. 74 Jimmy Flynn G/LB 8 50 Jimmy Gore G/DE Sr. 75 Matt Hughson T/DT Sr. 51 Luke Fancy G/DE Fr. 77 Travis Pierre C/NG Sr. So.

Series: Groton-Dunstable, 1-0. he Crusaders have adapted well to Division 3A, as GrotonDunstable is fighting for one of the top playoff spots. GrotonDunstable will be making its second playoff appearance in two years thanks to a strong senior class led by quarterback Ryan Romich and running back Dan Eipp. Junior Shane Penney has also emerged as a top offensive threat and will help fill the holes left by graduation next year. Romich has led the Crusaders with 12 touchdowns this year and leads a high-powered offense that has scored more than 300 points — including more than 100 points in the last three games. GrotonDunstable is coming into the game off a tough loss to Oakmont, but the Crusaders are hoping to spring board into the postseason by handing the Tigers their seventh consecutive loss. Groton-Dunstable will have to stop Tyngsboro’s speedy tail- Groton-Dunstable senior quarterback Ryan Romich back Matt Donohoe.
