Girls Soccer = Division 1 = #11 Lincoln-Sudbury, 1 @ #6 Franklin, 2 – Final
"When Franklin fell behind inside the opening 10 minutes of Monday night’s Div. 1 Sweet Sixteen match at Pisini Stadium, the Panthers weren’t worried. They had scored at least two goals in every match this season and were averaging just under four goals per outing.
There were still 72 minutes remaining, plenty of time to get the attack firing and make a comeback.
Franklin tied the game at the half-hour mark of the first half and sophomore Lily Strong went on an incredible solo run early in the second to put the Panthers in front. Behind one of the team’s best defensive efforts of the season, Franklin pulled out a 2-1 win over No. 11 Lincoln-Sudbury and advanced to its second quarterfinal in three years.
“We have been playing at a significantly higher level in the second half of the season, but we hadn’t yet done it for a full 80 minutes,” said Franklin coach Jodi Klein. “We just did and against a really good team. Before the game, the captains were getting everyone pumped up, the captains were leading, their energy was at an all-time high.”

Field Hockey = Division 1 = #10 Hopkinton, 1 @ #2 Franklin, 2 – Final (2OT)
"Franklin took the lead in Monday afternoon’s Div. 1 quarterfinal at Beaver Pond Field midway through the second quarter. When the horn sounded at the end of the fourth quarter, the scoreboard showed that the Panthers were still in front by a goal, but Hopkinton forced a corner so even though the clock read 0:00 the game wasn’t over.
Senior Ella Fowler got space and time at the edge of the circle and hit a rocket into the far corner, tying the game in the most dramatic (or devastating, depending on your perspective) way possible.
It was the kind of moment that could derail a team, especially one as young as Franklin, but the Panthers regrouped, reset, and regained control of the game. The hosts dominated in 7-on-7 and one minute into the second overtime period freshman midfielder Cade Taccini was tripped while driving at goal.
The officials gave a penalty stroke for denial of a clear scoring opportunity. Taccini was the pick to step up to the spot to try and win the game. She coolly rifled the ball into the top corner, giving the goalie no chance, sealing a 2-1 win, and sending the Panthers to their third state semifinal in the past five seasons."
