Final.

Flyers never trailed in this one on the road vs an undefeated 12-0 Warren East.  The Raiders were frustrated and there was a scuffle in the 4th and the game was called.  Flyers win the Regional Championship.  Go Flyers!

 

Just want to come on here and say congrats first and foremost to FC. 

I’m going to bypass the antics of the end of the game and just stay to the play. 
I thought Warren East struggled MIGHTLY to stop the run. It was rough. The flyers have kids who can get the ball and go but mercy were there some big holes. Their offensive line play was outstanding. 
 

The game was pretty much over from a realistic standpoint as soon as Dane Parsley left in the middle of the third quarter down two scores. Rolled his ankle up pretty bad it seemed and the cold made it so stiff he couldn’t put weight on it. 
This is no excuse, Franklin Co was the better team tonight, but I felt that’s when the game got away from East. 
 

Again, this was about how the Flyers executed. They were well coached, played sound defense, and expected to win. You could tell it with the way they walked on the field. 
 

Good luck going forward!

According to Bowling Green Preps on twitter, there was a bench clearing brawl at midfield after a punt and the game was called with 8:36 to go. That must have been pretty bad.

Hope the QB Parsley is okay.  He is a really good player.  Congrats to Warren East on a great season.  Beautiful facility and field.  Go Flyers!

Hopefully Franklin County didn’t have any ejections in that. 

Warren East goes out 12-1 after a great season which saw them win their district for the first time in a decade and appear in a region championship for the first time in a decade. It was clear to me, once both teams settled in, that you could tell East was a team who had not been there before. The Flyers have and it showed. 
 

It was an outstanding season for the Raiders, and I hate that it ended in such an ugly way for that team, but there is a lot to build on out Louisville Rd.

Right, if you have to end the game you would think the incident would have to be reviewed and several players would have to be ejected. 

I didn't think it was even bad enough to stop it, but Warren East was very agitated at being beaten and I get that. I don't believe any players from Franklin Co will be ejected.  

Congratulations to Coach James and the Flyers coaching staff on keeping the team focused after starting 1-4.  Hats off to the Flyers for buying in.  Let's go!!

I agree with @jvdfc It wasn’t bad enough to stop it. I have to assume the officials thought it would get out of hand from that point forward for the only reason.

Dane is a very Good player! Seemed like FC settled in second half and really got after him and the route was on. At the end FC was really popping down hill on both sides.

WE Coaches asked to end it. FC agreed.

Sounds like a bunch of wise men got together.
