Andover Takes Down Central in Thanksgiving Game, Advances to Playoffs

The Andover High School Warriors battled the Central Catholic football sqaud Thanksgiving Day morning and came out victorious.

 

The Warriors took down Central Catholic Thanksgiving Day morning, 22-19, after playing a close game in front of a crowd of nearly 7,000 at Lovely Stadium at the high school.

The turkey day win will also push the Warriors into the Division 1 playoffs. They will face St. John's Prep on Tuesday in the north semi-finals.

Warriors defensive coordinator Shawn Theriault said that the team was able to get ahead of Central when, after scoring their second touchdown, they faked a field goal and went for the 2-point conversion to put Raiders out of reach.

The score at the half was 14-10.
