The game recap written by Josh Perry || HockomockSports.com Managing Editor
"Newton South, the No. 16 seed, put together a magical run to the Final Four, including a win over the tournament’s top seed Chelmsford in the Sweet Sixteen. They went into Wednesday night’s state semifinal at Westwood High looking to complete a magical run to the program’s first final.
Instead, the clock struck midnight on this season’s Cinderella.
Franklin continued to roll, earning a dominant, 3-0 (25-16, 25-13, 25-16) victory. It was Franklin’s 17th straight victory, with 14 of those wins being sweeps including all four postseason matches. The Panthers fulfilled their preseason goal of reaching the program’s first state title game and will face perennial power Newton North in the final.
“We’re so excited,” said Franklin senior hitter Makayla Kuykendall. “Our goal wasn’t just to win the league but it was to win it all. [Coach Ridolfi] asked us what we wanted to get from this season and we said, a state championship. We’re so lucky and grateful to have this privilege to play.”
