Why Go: The Sachems hold a 52-42-12 advantage over the Tanners in the teams’ 107 Thanksgiving Day games, and they’ve won the last three. However, in order to keep that streak going, the Sachems’ defenders will need to contain Woburn’s dynamic playmaker Chucky Ortiz, a task easier said than done. Ortiz has 20 touchdowns through his team’s first nine games.
