Conor Noone, Jon Sacchetti, and Tony Sulham each scored once for Foxboro.

Franklin, 16 @ Foxboro, 6 – Final
Josh Perry, Managing Editor of HockomockSports.com, provides the game recap ->
"Just inside the final minute of the first half of Monday afternoon’s division leader showdown at Sam Berns Community Field, Cate Noone picked of an errant clearance to get a free run on goal, cutting the Franklin lead down to just two. As the final seconds ticked off, the Panthers had a chance from close range but Audrey Campbell came up with a big kick save, one of her five stops in the game.

It was just a two-goal lead at the break, as close as any Hockomock team had been to the Panthers at halftime this season.

On the visiting bench, Kristin Igoe Guarino had a frank conversation with her team about how things were going, while the Warriors carried their momentum into the second half and, with 19 minutes to play, Foxboro had the lead down to just one. The home fans were starting to believe that the upset was going to happen.

Franklin found another gear. The Panthers would lose only one draw from that point forward (winning 18-of-23 for the game) and rattled off nine straight goals, turning a close battle into a 16-6 win, extending their long league unbeaten streak by another game and clinching at least a share of their 13th straight league title."

Franklin, 4 @ Stoughton, 1 – Final

Stoughton, 1 @ Franklin, 4 – Final
