The Franklin Tech football team’s unbeaten season carries on.
Facing Palmer on the road Friday, the Eagles found themselves leading 14-0 at the half.
The Panthers didn’t go away easy, however, scoring 22 points in the second half. That wasn’t enough to get the job done though, as Franklin Tech escaped with a 24-22 victory at Legion Field.
Josiah Little continued his dominant season by finding the end zone twice and adding a two-point conversion for the Eagles. Ethan Smarr hauled in a touchdown and two two-point conversions to help seal the win for Franklin Tech.
The Eagles (5-0) hope to keep the win streak going when it hosts Greenfield on Friday.
