Volleyball = Division 1
#5 Franklin, 3 @ #4 Chelmsford, 2 – Final
"To borrow a phrase from baseball, the Franklin girls volleyball team was down to its last out in Thursday night’s MIAA Division 1 quarterfinal matchup.
Host Chelmsford led the match 2-1 and held a 24-22 advantage in the fourth set, needing just one point to dethrone the defending Division 1 state champion Panthers. And the Lions had the serve.
But fifth-seeded Franklin survived, scoring four straight points to win the set 26-24 and force a fifth and deciding set. The Panthers won it 15-11 to advance to the semifinals and keep their quest for a second straight state title alive.
“That’s a heart of a champion,” said Franklin coach Chris Ridolfi. “It’s all heart right there. We got it done.”
Chelmsford’s remarkable season finished at 21-2 overall. Just two weeks ago, these teams met to close the regular season, with the Lions emerging victorious by the same 3-2 score."
