It was a hard-fought game from start to finish, Franklin County didn’t show an ounce of quit, but an incredible rushing game by the Cottondale Hornets was too much to overcome Friday night. After the two teams each scored a first quarter touchdown, and the Hornets led 8-6, Cottondale outscored the Seahawks 24-14 in the…

St. Joe, under the coaching of Derek Garland, won 25-20, 25-19 and 28-26 over Franklin, coached by…
It was another precedent setting win for the Franklin County Seahawks Friday night, as they opened the season 3-0 with a 41-14 victory over the FAMU Development Research School Baby Rattlers.

For a team that’s only won two games since 2020, it’s not surprising that the Franklin County Seahawks would be involved in a blowout on the football field. What was surprising Friday night, is that they were on the winning side of the scoreboard, as they traveled to Bronson in Levy County and handed the…
North Florida Christian took it on the chin Friday night in a preseason classic in Eastpoint. But it was mainly due to their sticking their neck out.
