FHS boys basketball top Tech Boston, take Harvey Nasuti Winter Classic title

Via HockomockSports and Twitter we share the results of the FHS sports action on Monday, Feb 19, 2018


Boys Hockey = Franklin, 3 vs. LaSalle Academy, 4 – Final

 Boys Basketball = Franklin, 76 vs. Tech Boston, 67 – Final

 Ryan Lanigan, founder and Editor-in-Chief of HockomockSports.com, provides the game recap:

"Coming off a state finals appearance a year ago, Franklin loaded its schedule with tough opponents in hopes of preparing for another deep playoff run. 
After beating D1 South hopeful New Bedford on Sunday, the Panthers matched up with the state’s top-ranked team, Tech Boston, in the championship game of the Harvey Nasuti Winter Classic. 
Although the flow of the game was hindered by nearly 50 foul calls, the Panthers made the runs at the right times and limited the Bears in transition, resulting in a 76-67 win. 
“We feel like we’re one of the best teams in the state,” said Franklin coach CJ Neely. “We’re not worried about who’s one or two or stuff like that. We talk about our goals and taking it one step at a time. This was our next goal [to win this tournament] and Tech Boston happened to the be the top-ranked team. They’re a very good team. We like that we can compete there and show what we’re made of, especially on the defensive side of the ball I think we did a great job able to slow them down some.”
