Simply put, Glenn Tydlacka is Somerville football.

Any play that the Yeguas’ have run or tried to stop over the last 40 years, he’s been a part of as the team’s broadcaster.

“I love it,” Tydlacka said. 

We should all hope to find something in life that we love as much as he loves Somerville football.

Coaches have come and gone - somewhere between 15 to 20 - but Tydlacka has remained. He just can’t get enough.

“I'm a statistics kind of guy, and luckily, I've been blessed with I can look at the chains and pick up right away how much gained, remember how much was needed, and so I can do the math real quick,” he said.
