Franklin is still undefeated this season after their match against Reynolds on Saturday, but Reynolds came as close as anyone has to beating them. Franklin came within a single run of losing the streak, but they secured a 4-3 W against Reynolds. While the Knights didn't have the best season last year (they finished 3-15), it's starting to look like those struggles are a thing of the past.

Evan Turner made a big impact no matter where he played. He looked comfortable on the mound, pitching one inning while giving up no earned runs or hits. Those zero hits allowed gave him a new career-low. He was also solid in the batter's box, going 1-for-3 with one home run. That home run was his first of the season.

Turner wasn't the only one making solid contact as five players wound up with at least one hit. One of them was Ty Prince, who went 1-for-3 with one double and one RBI. That double marked the first that Prince hit this season.

Franklin pushed their record up to 4-0 with the win, which was their third straight at home. Those victories came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 3.7 runs on average over those games. As for Reynolds, their defeat dropped their record down to 1-1.

Franklin and Reynolds will both get their first taste of in-conference action in their upcoming games. Franklin is set to face off against their familiar foe Slippery Rock at 4:00 p.m. on Monday. Meanwhile, Reynolds will square off against rival Kennedy Catholic at 4:15 p.m. on Monday.
