SATURDAY SPORTS WRAP: October 17-18

Disappointing Finale
The Franklin HS Grizzly Cubs ended their regular season with a disappointing 14-6 loss to Martinsville. Franklin moved the ball well most of the night but couldn't seal the deal often enough. Adding to the pain was their final drive, when QB Dan Bechman threw a touchdown pass to Austin Clark, only to have it called back on a questionable holding penalty. Our son Isaac and all the seniors were recognized before the game. At least one more to go: next week's sectional matchup against Greenwood.

Another Big Day for FC
Franklin College traveled to HCAC rival Anderson University on Saturday and the number one offense in the conference showed its stuff in a 56-27 victory over the Ravens. Sr. QB Chad Rupp threw for 6 touchdowns and completed 26 of 37 passes for 398 yards. Two more TD passes, and Rupp will be the all-time record-holder for Franklin College.

The Grizzlies are now 3-0 in the conference and 5-1 overall. They travel to Mt. St. Joseph next Saturday.
