Turning Point: Youth Watch Point-Saving Tackle By The Veteran Leader

It is coach James Franklin’s job to keep he and his team focused on winning each game, but after the first quarter most fans had a pretty comfortable feeling that the game would end with a victory for the home team.

The fans watched as a parade of young players entered the game on defense in the first half and then on both sides of the ball during the second half.
