Foxboro generated heavy pressure late, earning three corners in the final minute and putting shots on net on the first two before Franklin cleared the final chance wide after time expired. Junior goalie Elise Ackerman made four outstanding saves for the Panthers, while Franklin’s defense of senior Jossie Camp, juniors Clara Blongastainer and Sammy Feigen, and sophomore Rhian Schlitzer held firm down the stretch. “I am so proud of this team for rallying in the second half to come from behind and score two goals to win the game,” Franklin head coach Michelle Hess said.

– Marley Lindenmeyer served up 12 aces and added three kills and five digs to power Franklin to another convincing win, sweeping Foxboro 25-7, 25-18, 25-10.

Via Instagram, Franklin TV, and our subscription to HockomockSports.com, we share the results of the Fall sports competition for Franklin High School on Tuesday, September 8, 2026


Boys Soccer = Franklin, 1 @ King Philip, 1 – Final 
– Franklin and King Philip traded first half goals and then played 40 minutes of scoreless soccer to settle for a point apiece in the season opener. Junior Cam Lambert put the visitors up inside the opening 10 minutes, finishing off a pass from classmate Ethan Herndon to give Franklin a 1-0 lead. Just before halftime, senior Iago Oliveira had a shot from 20 yards out hit off the post and senior Nick Wendling was first to the loose ball, poking the rebound in to tie it.


Girls Soccer = King Philip, 1 @ Franklin, 4 – Final 
– Click here for a photo gallery of this game. – Lily Strong scored once and assisted on another to help Franklin pull out a win in a season-opening battle of 2025 Final Four teams. The Panthers took the lead in the 17th minute. Madison Griffith sprung Phoebe Cuneo down the right wing. After some confusion in the center of the KP defense, the loose ball popped out to Strong on the edge of the box and she slotted it into the empty net. KP nearly equalized a few minutes later, but Ava Quintin’s 25-yard free kick hit the underside of the bar and somehow stayed out. On the rebound, freshman Lola Weeman had a header inside the six saved by Devyn Cairns. Strong would force a good save from Emma Weiblin and Hannah Griffith went close after getting on the end of a free kick, but it stayed 1-0 at the break. Franklin started the second half well and nine minutes in the Panthers doubled their lead. Cuneo won the ball back in midfield and sent a through ball to Strong in the right channel. A slightly heavy touch nearly took the chance away, but Strong managed to get to the ball before the keeper and square it for a wide open Cuneo to tap in. Three minutes later, KP (which was playing without star Ella McDonald) got on the board. Avery Hebert’s long throw from the left wing dropped in the box and Molly Morgan was able to corral the bouncing ball and squeeze it in at the near post, just under the arm of Cairns, to cut the deficit to 2-1. Laila Rosen restored the two-goal cushion just five minutes later with a terrific solo effort. She won the ball back in midfield, drove forward, shrugged off a challenge just outside the box, and from the edge of the area rifled a left-footed shot into the far bottom corner. Hailey Leblanc capped off the day with her first varsity goal on a chip from the right side of the box that snuck under the bar.

Field Hockey = King Philip, 2 @ Franklin, 3 – Final 
– Click here for a photo gallery of this game. – Ella Marzullo’s second goal of the game proved to be the difference as Franklin held off King Philip to open the season with a win. The senior intercepted a clearance attempt, juggled the ball into the circle, and then ripped a high shot past the keeper with eight minutes left to put the Panthers up 3-1. KP rallied to pull within one when Caitlyn McManus set up Ella Morgan in front with five minutes to go, but the Panthers were able to close out the win. Marzullo opened the scoring two minutes into the game on a well-worked corner from the hosts. Lila Reardon sent the original pass out to Penelope Brady who shuffled it over to Caydence Canavan, and her blast toward goal was tipped in by Marzullo out in front. King Philip tied the game with less than a minute left in the opening quarter when Morgan gained control just past midfield and used her speed to take it all the way into the circle, firing a near post shot in. Amelia Manning put the hosts back in front just two minutes into the third off a pass from Marzullo. KP had a chance to tie the game in the third but junior Elise Ackerman (three saves) made a terrific stick save on a penalty stroke to keep Franklin ahead. Sophomore Bella Pennini made six saves in net for the Warriors. Franklin head coach Michelle Hess credited Jossie Camp (defense) and Cade Taccini (midfield) with strong performances.

Volleyball = King Philip, 0 @ Franklin, 3 – Final

For King Philip, junior Mia Keays finished with 15 digs and junior Molly Sweeney recorded seven kills.

Golf = Franklin, 163 @ Taunton, 176 – Final 
– Franklin returned home from Segregansett Country Club with a division win over Taunton, led by senior Tyler Perlman and junior Bryce Botelho, who each recorded six pars. Perlman fired a team-low 39, while Botelho carded a 40. Senior Ben Burgess added a 41 and senior Ayden Doyle finished with a 43. Colby Emond led Taunton with a 42, followed by Logan Mendes at 44 and Trey Buebendorf and Caleb Bond at 45.

Dean College field hockey captain takes the field for Puerto Rico

The Franklin (Dean College) radar picked up this item of interest"

"For Lakeland graduate Emily Yazzetti, it is a special time as she is playing field hockey for the Puerto Rico national team that is competing in the 2026 Central American and Caribbean Games in Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic, that started July 24 and runs through Aug. 8.

Dean College field hockey captain takes the field for Puerto Rico
https://news.halstonmedia.com/stories/yazzetti-takes-the-field-for-puerto-rico,89736

“Playing for this team means more to me than just making a name for myself,” Yazzetti said. “It's about representing a part of my culture, my country, and most importantly my family, who this wouldn't be possible without. Finding the true meaning for being a part of this team was hard, since I didn't have a great connection to the roots of where I come, but to build it myself is truly special.”

Yazzetti said the team wants to win badly to make a name for Puerto Rico field hockey.

“But even beyond the concept of winning, just to connect, grow, and play together as a team at such a high level of competition is an honor,” Yazzetti said."

....

"Collegiately, Yazzetti is a rising junior at Dean College, located in Franklin, Massachusetts, where she plays both field hockey and softball. There, she is a captain of the field hockey team, playing forward and attacking midfield and utility and outfield on the softball team.

“It's definitely a challenge to balance playing two sports at the collegiate level but it is so worth the effort put into it to be able to play the two sports that I love and grew up with,” Yazzetti said. “I love having a busy fall and spring now that I play both sports because I like to keep busy and hard work is good busy.”

Highlighting her time to this point at Dean College in field hockey was being named MVP of the Great Northeast Athletic Conference championship and leading her team to the title last fall."

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.”

Both the FHS field hockey team and girls soccer team advance in playoffs

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 10, 2025


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."

FHS field hockey tops Waltham on Thursday to advance in playoffs

Via Twitter, Franklin TV, and our subscription to HockomockSports.com, we share the results of the Fall sports competition for Franklin High School on Thursday, November 6, 2025

Field Hockey =  Division 1 = #18 Waltham, 0 @ #2 Franklin, 2 – Final

Via the Tweets/x posts from   https://x.com/Josh_Perry10
"Back at the Beaver Pond Turf this afternoon, #2 Franklin (14-2-3) hosting #18 Waltham (12-4-3) in the D1 Sweet Sixteen, Panthers shook off some rust in the opening round win and are trying to get back to the quarterfinal for the fifth straight year #hockomock

End of 1Q: Franklin 0, Waltham 0, Panthers defended for almost the entire first quarter and the visitors had four corners although neither team had a shot on target, unusual to see Franklin pinned in its own half for so long but they couldn’t find an outlet #hockomock

Halftime: Franklin 1, Waltham 0, Panthers get a breakthrough on a nice shot from Addi Weiss after a good ball into the circle from Cade Taccini, Franklin still looks out of sorts though and the Hawks nearly tied it on a corner with no time left in the half #hockomock

Franklin cashes in on its eighth corner and adds a big insurance goal, freshman Amelia Manning tees up classmate Cade Taccini and she fires it through a crowd and inside the far post, 2-0 #hockomock

End of 3Q: Franklin 1, Waltham 0, that was a little more like it from the Panthers who were forcing more turnovers and creating more offense, best chance came with minute to go when Ella Marzullo slipped Penelope Brady in 1-on-1 but goalie made big stop #hockomock

Final: Franklin 2, Waltham 0, Panthers weren’t at their best today (credit to Waltham for putting the pressure on them) but they’re headed to a fifth straight quarterfinal, they’ll face #10 Hopkinton on Monday afternoon #hockomock"

FHS field hockey tops Woburn to advance to Sweet 16 in playoffs on Monday

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 3, 2025


Field Hockey = Division 1 = #31 Woburn, 0 @ #2 Franklin, 4 – Final

End of 1Q: Franklin 0, Woburn 0, Panthers have had a couple chances including one tip from Ava Lucenta that was cleared off the line but Woburn has done a good job keeping most attacks to the perimeter

Halftime: Franklin 1, Woburn 0, Panthers cash in on their fourth corner of the day, five players got a touch before the ball dropped to Tori Cahill on the post and she buried the chance to put the hosts in front, Franklin looked far more dangerous in 2Q

Final: Franklin 4, Woburn 0, Penelope Brady had a goal and assist in the third quarter, Ella Marzullo scored once, and freshman Lily Aparo added a fourth goal in the 4Q, Panthers face winner of Lexington/Waltham in the Sweet Sixteen 
"It had been nearly two weeks since Franklin closed out the regular season with a win against Bishop Feehan. Inevitably, the Panthers took a little while to find their footing in Monday afternoon’s Div. 1 tournament opener at Beaver Pond Field.

Once the Panthers got up to speed, things went according to plan. Franklin scored three times in the second half and rolled to a 4-0 win against No. 31 Woburn to get back into the Sweet Sixteen.

“A little slow to start,” Franklin coach Michelle Hess admitted. “The break was good because we had some injuries but yeah we’ve got to get back to the routine. We’ve got to get back to playing and you play against each other so much it gets monotonous. And, I have a young team, so I think we had a little bit of nerves.”

Franklin struggled to connect passes and create scoring chances in the opening quarter. With 8:20 left in the first, the Panthers got a corner and Ella Marzullo fed the ball to the goal mouth where Ava Lucenta was stationed but her tip was cleared off the line by Woburn’s Emerson Lilley."

Makayla Kuykendall had another impressive all-around game, recording 15 kills, 12 digs, and a pair of aces.
