Wildcat History
Wilmington High’s mascot is the wildcat and its athletic teams participate in the Middlesex League. The Wildcats’ colors are navy blue, Columbia blue, and the primary rival is the Tewksbury Redmen of the Merrimack Valley Conference.
The rivalry reaches its highest point every Thanksgiving when the two towns square off in a football game. In the 2007 season, Wilmington lost to Tewksbury for the first time since 2002 and still trails in the overall series history that started with two in 1935. The series has never been disrupted although they did not play on Thanksgiving in 1935 or from 1941 to 1956. In those years, their game was played on November 11.
