The MVRHS also started their season off strong with a win over Sutton on Saturday, 40 – 20.
It wasn’t all gravy, though, as the Vineyarders were down at the half 14-12.
But a strong running game from Guilherme Oliveira led to a dominant second half, holding Sutton to just six points while scoring 28 of their own.
Oliveira had three touchdowns, one from his own 35-yard line. The sophomore also had a good day on defense. He had six tackles and an interception on the day.
Quarterback Kaio DeCosta rushed for one touchdown, and connected for two passing touchdowns, one a 40-yard pass to Wyatt Nicholson, and a 50-yard pass to Aiden Connelly.
Overall, the Vineyarders rushed for 305 yards and passed for 125 in the win.
