McNary Celtics Football 14-20 Franklin

The McNary Celtics dropped a tough one Friday night, falling to Franklin 14-20 in a game that came down to the wire. The Celtics had their moments, but Franklin managed to make just enough plays when it counted to walk away with the victory.

McNary showed flashes of what this offense is capable of, putting 14 points on the board, but the defense couldn't quite hold the line when the pressure mounted late. Credit to Franklin for executing when it mattered most. These are the kinds of games where lessons get learned, and the Celtics will need to take this one to heart heading into the rest of the season.

The loss drops McNary to 2-3 on the year. The Celtics still have plenty of football left to play, and this roster has shown it can compete. The bounce-back opportunity will come soon enough, and Celtic faithful will be watching to see how this group responds.
