You can help with Fund raising underway for a Student Achievement Sign on Panther Way
FRANKLIN COMMUNITY: HELP US CELEBRATE OUR STATE CHAMPIONS! 🏆
Were you part of a Franklin High School state championship team? Are you the proud parent or family member of a Panther champion? We’re asking you to help preserve Franklin’s history!
A committee of Franklin parents and school officials is raising funds for a permanent 15-foot Student Achievement Sign on Panther Way to celebrate our community’s tradition of excellence.
The sign will recognize the 12 Franklin High School Division I state championship teams dating back to 1982, with space to honor future state titles in athletics, performing arts and academic competitions.
💙💛 This is a community-funded capital campaign, led by parents and booster organizations, with 100% of project funds being raised through community support—not the school budget.
📣 Our Fundraising Progress
Goal: $55,000
Raised: $32,900 (Thanks to The Fletcher Fund, FHS Booster Organizations, and parents)
Remaining: $22,100
🏆 Calling all championship alumni and families! You helped make Franklin history. Please consider contributing to ensure these achievements are recognized for generations of Panthers to come.
🏢 Calling local businesses! We’re seeking 8–10 Community Partners to support this initiative. Partners will receive a list of sponsorship benefits, be recognized at our spring ribbon-cutting ceremony, and have their company names permanently displayed on the sign.
Every contribution makes a difference! All individual and corporate donors contributing more than $500 will also be recognized on the permanent signage.
Please consider donating and sharing this post with former teammates, championship families, local businesses, and friends who love Franklin!
🔗 Learn more about the project in our Sponsor Information Packet: https://canva.link/0lcjiso5azm3m71
💙 Donate online through UniPay: https://unipaygold.unibank.com/transactioninfo.aspx
Additional payment options are available in the Sponsor Information Packet linked above.
Thank you for helping us honor our past champions, celebrate today’s students, and inspire the Panthers who will make history tomorrow!
Once a Panther, always a Panther! 💙💛 Please help us bring this sign to life with a donation to celebrate our students' achievements!

FHS volleyball: "Franklin Dethrones Newton North, Wins First State Title in Thriller"
"When Franklin won its Final Four match against Newton South on Wednesday, first-year head coach Chris Ridolfi smiled when his next opponent was mentioned. As he remarked, if you want to be the best, then you need to beat the best, and three-time defending champion Newton North certainly qualifies.
On Saturday night at Billerica High, Franklin, playing in its first-ever state title match, took down one of the state’s premier programs in a 3-2 (25-15, 25-27, 19-25, 25-23, 15-11) thriller. Franklin (23-2) took the crown from the Tigers and for the first time in program history are the Div. 1 champions.
Ridolfi said, “It was a heck of a first year. You come into a good team and that’s what you get.”
“That took so much out of us,” senior hitter Makayla Kuykendall said about battling back over the final two sets. “You could tell how badly we wanted it at the end. Personally, I did not want to lose that game at all. It was the last game of the season no matter what, so you may as well go out giving everything you have. And everyone did.”

HockomockSports.com: "Kuykendall Caps Storied Career With State Championship"
"Makayla Kuykendall‘s tank is officially empty.
The senior gave every last ounce of energy and effort on Saturday night in the Division 1 championship game against powerhouse Newton North. But she had just enough left for one more swing.
That swing hammered to the floor in the back corner, the clinching point to finish off Franklin’s comeback and secure a 15-12 win in the fifth set to clinch a 3-2 (25-15, 25-27, 19-25, 25-23, 15-12) victory over the Tigers. It was the final point of the season, and fittingly, it came off the hand that has steadied the Panthers over the past four years.
“I’m feeling great, but I’m dead [tired],” an exhausted Kuykendall relayed after the marathon match inside a quite warm Billerica gymnasium. “That took so much out of us. You could tell how badly we wanted it at the end. Personally, I did not want to lose that game at all. It was the last game of the season no matter what, so you may as well go out giving everything you have. And everyone did.”
Kuykendall has been a starter since she first put on a Franklin uniform, growing from a promising underclassman into the program’s heartbeat. When the Panthers trailed 2-1 in the match, it was the senior who kept demanding the ball, kept taking the tough swings, and kept pulling her teammates back into the fight with words of wisdom and encouragement after each and every point."

FHS field Hockey: "Despite Fierce Defensive Effort, Franklin Falls to Walpole in Final"
"With five minutes left in the fourth quarter of Saturday morning’s Div. 1 state championship game at Burlington High, Franklin lined up its only corner of the second half (and only its second of the day). The Panthers had put up a stiff resistance on the other end of the field but had very few scoring opportunities.
Down by a goal to top seed Walpole, this was Franklin’s chance to try and get on the board and keep its dream of a first state title alive.
The ball came out to freshman Cade Taccini, who has scored big goals throughout this playoff run. Her blast from the top of the circle skipped through bodies in the crease but was inches wide of the post and inches from junior Tori Cahill’s tip attempt.
Walpole ran out the remaining time to finish off a 1-0 victory and clinch a third straight state title. Franklin can confidently look to the future with a young core of players who made history by reaching the program’s first final."

Both FHS field hockey and volleyball teams make it to the D1 FINALS
Via Twitter, Franklin TV, and our subscription to HockomockSports.com, we share the results of the Fall sports competition for Franklin High School on Monday, November 12, 2025
Field Hockey = Division 1 Final Four = #3 Wellesley, 0 vs. #2 Franklin, 2 – Final
Volleyball = Division 1 Final Four = #16 Newton South, 0 vs. #5 Franklin, 3 – Final
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.”
