Josie Drucker, Marley Allen, and Kiera Kotwicki each had two hits in the win.

Girls Lacrosse = Franklin, 14 @ King Philip, 4 – Final 

Josh Perry, Managing Editor of HockomockSports.com provides the game recap:

"Prior to Franklin becoming the dominant power in the Hockomock League, King Philip was the team to beat. The Warriors won six straight titles from 2003-2008 and, after Franklin won in 2010 and 2011, shared the title with Franklin in 2012.

Since that spring 11 years ago, the Panthers have been literally unbeatable. The Panthers have won 12 straight league titles and more than 100 straight league games.

On Wednesday afternoon at Macktaz Field, KP got another shot at ending that streak and pulling level with the Panthers atop the division. If the hosts were hoping to pull the upset, then they needed to have a good start to build confidence, but Franklin, which was playing its third game in as many days, took control from the opening draw and never looked back.

The Panthers scored the first six goals of the game and allowed just one KP goal in the second half to earn the 14-4 win, building a two-game lead on the Warriors in the standings."

Boston Globe: "In Franklin, community and culture matter, and the result is sustained success for the girls’ lacrosse program"

"The day of a rivalry matchup at Franklin High, a hum of electricity flows through town. Youth players scribble on poster boards with crayons, writing messages to their favorite varsity lacrosse players. Parents dig through drawers of endless blue T-shirts, hoodies, and jackets searching for one fit for the occasion.

Franklin girls’ lacrosse players tie bows in their hair as fans — mostly residents of the 26-square-mile town — begin to fill the stands at Pisini Stadium.

“It’s just a really supportive town all around,” Franklin coach Kristin Igoe Guarino said. “Being in a sports town makes it even more fun.”

HockomockSports.com has published the "Boys Lacrosse: Ten Players to Watch for 2023". The Franklin selections are shared here. The link to the complete listing is provided below.

JAYDEN CONSIGLI, SENIOR – FRANKLIN

Last spring, the Panthers put up record-breaking numbers, scoring nearly 60 more goals than any other team and having all three of the attackers hit the 100-point mark on the season. Consigli is a main piece of an offense that led Franklin to the Div. 1 quarterfinal. As a junior, the UMass Lowell commit scored 78 goals and dished out a team-high 56 assists. He was second only to teammate Luke Davis in points last year. Quick, creative, and capable of pulling off stunning goals and threading the needle on a pass, Consigli earned Eastern Mass. All-American honors last year. His movement off the ball makes him a constant threat. The Panthers know that they have an attack capable of putting up historic numbers and they will be counting on Consigli and company to fire the team to another league title and another tournament run.

LUKE DAVIS, SENIOR – FRANKLIN

Franklin boasts one of the most potent attacking units in the state and that group is led by Davis. The reigning league MVP and HockomockSports.com Player of the Year was dominant last spring, with 94 goals and 42 assists, leading three Panthers that all surpassed the 100-point mark on the season. With Davis as the spearhead of the offense, Franklin scored nearly 60 more goals than anyone else in the league. The Boston University commit showed during the football season how strong and elusive he can be and he is even harder to stop on the lacrosse field. A creative finisher, who can score from anywhere, Davis is already a two-time Eastern Mass. All-American. The Panthers reached the Div. 1 quarterfinal a year ago and have loaded up the non-league schedule again this spring with intentions of going even further, and Davis leading statistically the best attack in program history has them confident a deep run is possible.

HockomockSports.com 2023 Hockomock League Girls Lacrosse Preview - Franklin

HockomockSports.com has published the "2023 Hockomock League Girls Lacrosse Preview". The Franklin section is shared here. The link to the complete listing is provided below.

FRANKLIN

2022 Record: 18-3

2022 Finish: Reached Div. 1 Quarterfinal (Kelley-Rex champion)

Coach: Kristin Igoe Guarino

Franklin has been untouchable in the Hockomock League for a decade. Last spring, the Panthers extended their league winning streak to more than 90 games and they come into this season as the heavy favorites to bring home another Kelley-Rex title. Expectations remain sky-high for a program that only seems to reload, not rebuild, and the Panthers will continue to have aspirations to challenge the best programs in the state and compete for a first state title.

The experience in the midfield will be key to Franklin’s season. Senior Kaitlyn Carney led the team with 50 goals in the regular season in 2022 and classmate Katie Peterson was right behind her with 65 points. Seniors Jamie Tanner and Lindsay Atkinson will also return in what should be a dynamic attacking unit. What makes Franklin so difficult to play against is that all of those midfielders also contribute on the other end as well. Senior Payten Crandall will be back in the heart of the defense, giving the team needed leadership in front of its own goal.

As always, when players graduate, Franklin has new players ready to step into the lineup. Junior Katie Ryan will add to the attacking firepower up front, while sophomore Sophia Sacchetti will add to the midfield. Both were on varsity last season but will have bigger roles to play this spring. Freshman midfielder Vera Hansen, the lone rookie on the roster, will also get the chance to show off her speed. Junior Keira Kucich will join Crandall in defense in front of sophomore goalie Ella Mahoney, who’s had a strong start to the season.

“I am really looking forward to the 2023 season,” said Franklin coach Kristin Igoe Guarino. “We have a good mix of upperclassmen leaders and new players who are ready to step up. Every player has an important role on this team, and if we play together we can go far!”

FRANKLIN

2022 Record: 15-6

2022 Finish: Reached Div. 1 Quarterfinal (Kelley-Rex champion)

Coach: Lou Verrochi

Every spring, Hockomock teams start the new season hoping this will be the year that Franklin loosens its grip on the Kelley-Rex division and each time the Panthers return with the talent to not only win state titles but to compete with the best programs in the state. In fact, longtime coach Lou Verrochi believes this might be as good a team as he has ever had.

Franklin’s attack will be among the best in the state. Senior Luke Davis is already a two-time All-American, senior Jayden Consigli was an All-American last year, and senior Tyler Sacchetti joined his attacking partners by recording more than 100 points in 2022. All three are Div. I commits. The Panthers have loads of depth in the midfield with senior Ravin Chaudhury providing box-to-box work and classmate John Walshe a standout defensive midfielder. Juniors Eddie O’Brien, Ryan Grasso, and Drew Hansen can all jump into the attack and produce, while seniors Chris Drake and Brian Leonard will provide cover in the defensive half.

The defense has more experience this season. Senior Ben Harvey will be the anchor of a strong group of poles. Senior Braeden Leonard has battled injuries but is finally healthy and ready to step into a big role and sophomore Drew McCarthy will be the third starter. Senior Connor Sullivan and sophomore Flynn Baker will split time between LSM and close defense. Junior Matt Corvi and senior Mike Galvin give Franklin two strong shot-stoppers in goal and senior Justin Alexander is one of the best FOGOs in the state.

“We also have many players waiting in the wings that can really play,” Verrochi said. “I’m very excited for this season.”

Girls Lacrosse: Ten Players to Watch for 2023 -> FHS' Carney, Peterson

HockomockSports.com has published the "Girls Lacrosse: Ten Players to Watch for 2023". The Franklin selections are shared here. The link to the complete listing is provided below.

KAITLYN CARNEY, SENIOR – FRANKLIN

After scoring goals that nearly won Franklin its first state title as a sophomore, Carney continued to develop her all-around game last year and was one of the most dynamic players in the Hock. The James Madison commit finished with 60 goals, 19 assists, 46 draw controls, and 30 caused turnovers, while earning Eastern Mass. all-star honors. Carney’s impact all over the field was evident by leading the Panthers in both goals and caused turnovers. Her tenacity is unmatched and Carney never shies away from a physical battle. That also carries into the attacking zone, where Carney combines that energy with creativity around the cage to be one of the league’s top finishers. Franklin continues to be one of the top programs in the state and Carney will be right in the middle of the quest to bring home a first state championship.

KATIE PETERSON, SENIOR – FRANKLIN

Each year, Franklin graduates a ton of talent and each year the Panthers return with lineups loaded with some of the league’s top players. Peterson is an impact player on both ends of the field, not only scoring big goals but also being one of the team’s top defensive midfielders. The UMass commit scored 43 goals and dished out 30 assists to help Franklin extend its league-winning streak to more than 90 games. Peterson was also a force on the draw, pulling down 64 draw controls, and her quickness, athleticism, and, length controlled play on the defensive end of the field. She was named an Eastern Mass. all-star. Franklin remains the favorite in the Kelley-Rex and one of the top teams in the state and Peterson will be right at the heart of it all this season as one of the top returning scorers in the Hockomock.

FHS' Luke Davis named 2022 HockomockSports.com Boys Lacrosse Player of the Year

"Franklin junior attack Luke Davis has been selected as the 2022 HockomockSports.com Boys Lacrosse Player of the Year. This is the first time the award has been given out since 2019. Davis was the league’s top attacking player this year, helping Franklin secure a ninth straight Kelley-Rex division title, complete a perfect league campaign, and reach the Div. 1 quarterfinal.

Davis, a Boston University commit, was part of the league’s top attacking unit, a trio of players who all surpassed the 100-point mark this season and scored nearly 60 more goals than anyone else in the Hockomock. Davis spearheaded the attack with 94 goals and 42 assists this year and was chosen by the coaches as the league MVP."

https://hockomocksports.com/awards/boys-lacrosse/2022-2/

HOCKOMOCKSPORTS FIRST TEAM

Ben Harvey – Franklin – Defense

Franklin junior Ben Harvey was a leader for one of the league’s top defensive units. Despite playing some of the top attacking teams in the state, Harvey and the Panthers allowed fewer than nine goals per game this year. It was one of the factors in the Panthers winning a ninth straight league title and reaching the Div. 1 quarterfinal. He was selected as an all-star by the league’s coaches. Franklin coach Lou Verrochi said, “Ben always covered the top attack or middie. He’s a total beast and calls all defensive sets and slide packages. He’s a very cerebral player.”

Luke Davis – Franklin – Attack

Franklin junior Luke Davis put up another impressive offensive season for the Panthers, leading them to a ninth straight league title and a spot in the Div. 1 quarterfinal. One of the three Franklin players to eclipse the 100-point mark this year, the BU-commit and HockomockSports.com Player of the Year (see above) scored 94 goals and dished out 42 assists while earning his second straight All-American nod. He was also voted league MVP. Franklin coach Lou Verrochi said, “Luke is a difficult cover for any pole and he always gets the No. 1. If he gets the early slide he finds the open stick.”

Jayden Consigli – Franklin – Attack

Franklin junior Jayden Consigli built on his breakout sophomore season to help the Panthers win a ninth straight league title and reach the Div. 1 quarterfinal. Consigli scored 78 goals and had 56 assists, as part of a powerful Franklin attack that scored nearly 60 goals more than any other team in the Hock. He was selected as a league all-star and as an All-American. Franklin coach Lou Verrochi said of Consigli, “He’s the best off-ball player we’ve had at Franklin. Jayden is a very accurate shooter and an excellent feeder.”

Justin Alexander – Franklin – FO

Franklin junior Justin Alexander continued to dominate the face-off ‘X’ for the Panthers this spring, making sure the Panthers had plenty of extra possessions for the league’s top attack to take advantage of and helping them win a ninth straight KelleyRex title and reach the Div. 1 quarterfinal. Alexander won 68 percent of his faceoffs this year, despite regularly battling some of the top face-off guys in the state. He was selected as a league all-star. Franklin coach Lou Verrochi said, “From a coaching standpoint, Justin’s our MVP because he gets us so many possessions.”

HOCKOMOCKSPORTS SECOND TEAM

John Walshe – Franklin – Midfield

Franklin junior John Walshe was an all-around performer for the Panthers this season, providing assistance on the face-offs, on the ride, in the defensive end of the field, on man-up and man-down situations, and with his playmaking. Walshe’s efforts helped the Panthers win a ninth straight Kelley-Rex title and reach the Div. 1 quarterfinal. He scored 22 goals and dished out 21 assists this season and was selected as a league all-star. Franklin coach Lou Verrochi said, “John is a very physical player with excellent speed and lacrosse IQ. I’m expecting continued excellence from him next season.”

Tyler Sacchetti – Franklin – Attack

Franklin junior Tyler Sacchetti had a breakout spring and became part of a trio of Panthers to reach the 100-point mark this season, which helped them clinch a ninth straight league title and advance to the Div. 1 quarterfinal. He scored 54 goals and recorded 60 assists this year, breaking the school’s single-season assist record. He was selected as an all-star by the league’s coaches. Franklin coach Lou Verrochi said of Sacchetti, “Many teams made the mistake of not playing him tight. He has great vision and is a tremendous shooter and feeder.”
