Sometimes you feel sorry for a team.
The photo above is telling in that it features mostly Franklin's starters getting excited at the end of the game. These kids were on the bench, not because of foul trouble or disciplinary measures, but because they just put up so many points it didn't make any sense at all to let them risk getting injured or to keep putting up even more points against a small squad of kids from Erie First Christian who just are not really in the same league of ability. Why rub it in on a group of kids who are just out trying as hard as anyone else.
Franklin is just a very, very good basketball team.
At the end of the game, excitement filled the gymnasium as the Knights seemed destined to reach the century mark. The game ended 94-18, but it wasn't an exciting game because it was such a lopsided affair.
