Franklin 41 Lancaster 34 Final. First trip to the state championship for the Broncos since 1993. I told folks this team was for real.
I'm sure the Lancaster players and coaches are going to agonize over this one for a while. They had 2 long scoring droughts. Had 17 empty third quarter possessions and sank less than 50 percent of their free throws on the night and were still within a point with 2 minutes to go. Give credit to both teams defense for the low offensive outputs. Lots of 3-pointers attempted by both teams and only 6 combined went through the rim.
Agreed. Both teams were challenged putting the ball in the hoop! Many many turnovers; however in the back of your mind, you were expecting that Lancaster “magic” to show itself; but of course it never materialized.
Lancaster, thanks for a great run.
Everyone counted you out this year, but you proved them wrong. Deep down, you know you should be in the state final. In big games, you can’t afford to beat yourselves—and unfortunately, that’s what happened Friday night. Franklin wasn’t impressive at all; it was the unforced turnovers on fast breaks (I counted at least six), the missed free throws (at least ten), and that brutal stretch at the start of the third quarter where you missed ten straight shots. It was just the wrong time to have your worst game of the season.
You should have beaten Franklin by ten.
DLAN—see you next year.

It's ok to be a fan but don't act like your best players missed the game or you beat yourselves it's disrespectful just give grace and keep it moving no time to justify it is what it is. Nobody expected neither team to be here unlike our counterparts out west. Y'all ran Altavista out the gym. One player scored 25 points by himself. Mayne defense wins championships offense wins games. Lancaster was held to 34 points in four quarters. Franklin is comfortable playing in muddy waters ( low scoring games).
Come on man. Dont be that guy. Franklin came to Lancaster and held them to 34 pts. Franklin is just the better team. Great game from both and a show of unity in the end
Be for real!!! Franklin is not a better team like I said Lancaster beat themselves.
