Franklin blanked Conneaut in the second half to claim its first win of the season 23-16. Franklin head coach Matt Turk said half-time adjustments were huge to stopping Conneaut's attack that netting 16 first half points on sustained drives.
Congrats Franklin on your big win. It shows tenacity to come from behind to take the lead and then hold on win/
I had so wanted to be thereto watch and document the Knights first win. I had a perfect storm of commitments to jobs happen this weekend and I had to get back to Meadville before 8:30 for another job, which meant I was only able to stay for the first quarter, even though I stretched that out to nearly the first half. The Knights and Eagles looked better than the last time I watched them play. Both tackled better and they moved the ball well. Braden Groover for Conneaut seemed near impossible to bring down one on one in the first half. Franklin's Carson Wible was also moving the ball despite the announcer not pronouncing his name right.
I was fortunate tonight to be able to help out my old friends at The Derrick and Explore Venango so that more people will be able to see and know Franklin was able to notch a W this season and appear to continue improving as the season goes on. Looking forward to reading Joe Henderson's story tomorrow to learn more about what I unfortunately had to miss in the second half.
Way to go Franklin!
