FHS baseball wins to advance; FHS girls lacrosse falls short in playoff run

Via HockomockSports.com and Twitter, we share the results of the spring sports competition for Franklin High School on Tuesday, June 13, 2023. We also provide the link to the full set of Hockomock League results below.


Baseball = Division 1 Final Four = #21 Methuen, 0 vs. #1 Franklin, 4 – Final
Josh Perry, Managing Editor of HockomockSports.com, provides the game recap:
"When the Franklin players watched Taunton celebrate at Holy Cross University’s Fitton Field in the final game of last season, the Panthers committed to giving themselves another chance at bringing home a state title.

On Tuesday night, at the same location as last year’s final, Franklin made sure its quest for a championship would go right to the end.

Austin Campbell and Dillon Cashin combined for a shutout and Eisig Chin had two hits and scored two runs, as the Panthers avoided the upset against No. 21 Methuen, pulling out a 4-0 win and setting up a rematch with the Tigers in the title game.

“I think we have great leadership,” Franklin coach Zach Brown said about what it has taken for his team to get back to this stage. “We have 15 seniors and all of them are tremendous leaders in their own way and they’re all great kids. These guys have stayed the course, they’ve stayed connected, and I’m really proud of their effort on a day-to-day basis.”
Continue reading the game recap ->


Girls Lacrosse = Division 1 Final Four = #7 Franklin, 9 vs. #3 Westwood, 10 – Final
Not the ending we wanted, but still so proud of this group they never gave up and fought until the end. That was kind of a theme for us this year. We faced so much adversity, but despite it all, the girls always played together with heart


Thank you to all the people who make Franklin glax so special year in and year out. Couldn’t do it without you

Baseball = Taunton, 4 @ Franklin, 7 – Final
Ryan Lanigan, founder and Editor-in-Chief of HockomockSports.com, provides the game recap:
"The Hockomock League runs through Franklin — again.

The Panthers clinched their fourth straight Kelley-Rex crown with a 7-4 verdict over rival Taunton, sweeping the season series against the Tigers and staying undefeated at 15-0.

The bottom of Franklin’s lineup spearheaded a six-run second inning and senior right-hander Alfred Mucciarone struck out 10 — his fifth double-digit strikeout performance in six starts — in a complete game effort.

“It’s a balancing act,” said Franklin head coach Zach Brown of dealing with all of the storylines surrounding the matchup with the Tigers, including a second rematch of last year’s Division 1 state championship. “Sometimes when you have all this motivation it can work against you in baseball. We have to trust our leadership and when you have these veterans, who are saying all the right things, it makes it easier.”
