Final.

Way to go Ralph. 20 pts. by Eric Meyer!

Flyers come back from being down 9 going into the 4th. Eric Meyer hit 6 threes on his way to 20 points. Timmons finishes with 15. Flyers move to 3-1 on the season.

You could tell Woodford was coached by a first year guy as Hundley did not look comfortable by any means at the end of the game. Flyers continue their winning streak against district opponents.

My bet is that Hundley and his teams will get better and better and that the Franklin streak will end this season.

Woodford Co did give the game away, but credit Franklin Co with gutting out a win after being down 10 points late in the 4th Quarter. FC could have very easily thrown in the towel, but played hard and pulled it out. FC's Bell and Roberts held Jay Johnson in check when it counted late.

Woodford County struggled at the free throw line going 15-28 and I'm going to estimate they missed 3 front ends of the bonus in the 4th quarter and had 19 turnovers. The Yellow Jackets need to get in the gym and practice their free-throws and taking care of the ball. Had they made those the game would have been out of reach. Credit Franklin County and in particular Meyer on his performance...he was, as Coach Cal would say, a buzzsaw! I saw Woodford County put a lot of fear in Franklin County's fanbase, coaching staff, and on-lookers that hasn't been there in recent years. While I'm sure Hundley wanted to win this one he knows that the Yellow Jackets can beat Franklin and I'm sure he would rather have one in March. I agree with Plato, the Flyers streak comes to an end this year!

Woodford County actually lost by 2 and 1 to Franklin County the last two games they played last year, so I think they already had their attention before Friday night.

Not sure what coach looks comfortable losing a 9 point lead with 4 minutes left...no matter if they are a first year coach or about to retire!

a la Coach Cal, Memphis v. Kansas....less time than that.

Not the first game of the season

It would be difficult to argue that the streak won't come to an end this season. I do think Woodford will get better and Hundley will be a very good high school coach. Franklin County is young, but what is encouraging is that the defensive effort demanded by Chalk seems to be there with this inexperienced team. I truely think the district is wide open this season whereas the last three seasons FC was the clearcut favorite.
