Woburn is led by 5th-year head coach Jack Belcher. The Tanners rode a seven-game winning streak into the contest dating back to last season. The last game they had lost going into Friday night was to Reading a year ago. Woburn is led by a stout offensive line and great running from sophomore runningback Bryan Ferreira, who had eight touchdowns and nearly 600 yards rushing across three games this season before Friday night’s contest.

Reading is a perennial powerhouse in the Middlesex League’s Liberty Division. Woburn was looking to get back there by knocking off the Rockets on Friday night. Find out the result and check out all the highlights with Boston 25 Sports.
