Given their disadvantage in the MaxPreps state rankings, Franklin should expect quite the challenge on Friday. They will take on Trinity in each of the teams' second playoff game at 2:00 PM. Both of these red-hot teams will try to put the other on ice to keep their winning streaks alive.
Franklin earned some postseason bragging rights after a successful outing last week. They put the hurt on Midland with a sharp 77-56 victory. Junior Danny Walther was the offensive standout of the match for Franklin, as he passed for 335 yards and 5 touchdowns. Walther has now scored at least one touchdown in the past ten games.
Meanwhile, Trinity weren't the first ones on the board, but they got there more often. They made easy work of Martin and carried off a 56-34 win. Not happy with the near-even 21-20 score at halftime, Trinity made a real splash in the second half.
Their wins bumped Franklin to 9-2 and Trinity to 9-1. We'll see who bends and who breaks when these two typically dominant teams face off.
