December 12th 2010 13:32
I would like to take this opportunity to give a shout out to the Franklinton,La High School Demons for their win over Karr to take the Louisiana class 4a state championship. Saturday in the Loisiana Superdome the Fighting Demons of Franklinton, La. finally brought home the gold. This was the first state title for Franklinton. It took three trips to the finals to finallt seal the championship. They were in the state finals in 1981,2009, and finally winning in 2010. Under the direction of Terrance Magee who is a LSU commitment the Demons won a very entertaining game in overtime by a score of 34-28.This game was a back and forth battle the whole game. With Franklinton leading 28-20 with 26 seconds left in the game Karr scored a touchdown and made the two point conversion to send it to overtime. Karr got the ball first on overtime and fumbled the ball on their own 5 yard line. Franklinton recovered the fumble that put them first and goal on the 8 yard line. After a couple of failed passes to the endzone Franklinton took the ball to the 1 yard line on third down. This set up a 4 and goal on the one. Instead od kicking the field goal the Demons decide to go for it on fourth down. Franklinton running back Reggie Wilson took it in from there on a 1 yard run to give the Demons their first state title. This is exciting to me because this is my home town and where I graduated in 1980. Congratulation Demons on bringing the state title to Franklinton,La.
