Saugus, Georgetown

GEORGETOWN — Anthony Guthro ran for 135 yards with a touchdown to help Saugus sink Georgetown 28-6.
Saugus improved to 1-4 while the Royals dropped to 1-3.
A Georgetown turnover on the first possession of the game led to Saugus’ first score, a 2-yard quarterback sneak by C.J. Randolph.
The Royals’ second possession ended in an interception. Shortly after, Nick Benoit cashed in on a 7-yard run. The Royals drove to the Saugus 7 late in the half but the drive stalled.
Saugus put the game out of reach in the second half on a Guthro touchdown run and a 78-yard touchdown catch by Ryan Henehan.
Georgetown scored its lone points on a 10-yard Tyler Wade pass to Pat Bjork late in the third quarter.
“You can’t get into the red zone four times and only come away with six points,” Royals coach Paul Sobolewski said. “That’s what it came down to. They were a little bit hungrier than we were. Football comes down to blocking and tackling. We didn’t do a good job of either one and that’s on me, I’ve got to do a better job.
“I said before the season started that I’m not worried about wins and losses, I’m worried about restoring a program. Which is what I was asked to do ... try to bring some pride back. And right now, we’re young and you’re seeing that. You’re seeing that aspect of it.”
