"Even though it’s just the second week of the season, Milford found themselves in a familiar position. But this time, they proved they had learned their lesson.
The Scarlet Hawks won the first two sets of the match for the third straight game, but unlike their loss to King Philip last week, Milford was able to finish off Franklin to get a 3-1 win.
Milford took a thrilling first set, 29-27, and followed with an impressive 25-15 win in the second set. Franklin rallied to win the third set, 25-21, giving the visitors a bit of momentum.
“We started off a little slow but then we got on track,” Milford head coach Linda Zacchilli said. “I thought we played pretty decent games one and two but momentum can shift. We just didn’t play in that third game and the momentum was with them. Once you let a team take the third game, they believe they can win and it’s harder to win it yourself. I tried to reinforce that.”

"Opponents of a November ballot question that would allow more charter schools are demanding the resignation of the chairman of the Massachusetts education board.
The No on Question 2 Campaign said Monday that Paul Sagan's judgment and impartiality would be impaired because Sagan made a $100,000 contribution to a group pushing for passage of the charter school proposal.
The Board of Elementary and Secondary Education has the final say on applications for new or expanded charter schools.
Sagan was appointed to chair the panel in March by Republican Gov. Charlie Baker, who strongly supports the ballot question."
