Franklin, 7-3

Franklin recovered a fumble inside the King Philip 5 and scored on a 2-yard touchdown run with 1:48 remaining to emerge with a 7-3 triumph.

KP senior Brian Toney booted a 29-yard field goal in the first quarter and it looked like it might hold up when Franklin fumbled at its own 7 with 2:35 remaining.

A botched handoff gave the Panthers the ball back and they didn't miss this opportunity.

Earlier in the scrimmage, Franklin watched a potential 59-yard touchdown pass on a screen play get called all the way back due to some extremely late offsetting penalties.

But overall, King Philip and its defense more than held its own against a very dynamic Franklin offense that likes to throw the ball around.

King Philip marched deep and gave itself a Hail Mary opportunity on the game's final play, but could not convert.
