Reggies survive late Northeast rally

WEST ANDOVER — Greater Lawrence took a 13-0 lead into the fourth quarter, before Northeast struck for three scores. But the Reggies were able to respond twice, and Alvin Torres recovered a game-clinching onside kick with 0:24 left as Greater Lawrence earned its first win of the season, 25-22 on Friday.

Amauris Gomez gave the Reggies (2-1) the lead in the first quarter with a 9-yard touchdown run. QB Gustavo Regalado then added a 9-yard TD run of his own in the second quarter to make it 13-0 at halftime.

Northeast (2-1) came alive in the fourth quarter, but the Reggies were able to strike back. Regalado answered the Knights' first touchdown with a 44-yard TD pass to Christopher Tineo. Northeast scored again, but Tiago Fernandes sprinted for the 38-yard TD that proved to be the game-winner. 

Fernandez ran for a team-high 91 yards on nine carries, while Gomez added 50 rushing yards on six carries and made an interception. Regalado was 5-for-8 passing for 108 yards.
