The GU14 Wilmington Wildcats took part in the 25th annual Fall Kickoff Classic in North Reading over Labor Day weekend.  The Wildcats finished the tournament with a record of 4-0-1 including a 2-1 win over Kennebunk in the finals to win the championship.  On their way to the championship they had wins over North Andover, Billerica, North Reading and a 0-0 tie against Kennebunk.

The hallmark of the Wildcats success was predicated on their solid defensive play in combination with stellar goalkeeping.  The Wildcats only allowed 1 goal while scoring 11 over the course of their five games.  Congratulations to the Wildcat players!
