It was one of the more frustrating losses in recent memory for G.W.  Franklin County held the football for 19 of the 24 minutes in the second-half, allowing them to win, 28-26.  The game started out well for G.W.  They took the opening drive in for a touchdown, then added a second score a few minutes later.  But two Franklin County touchdowns, the last one coming on the final play of the first half, gave them a 14-13 edge at the break.  They opened the third quarter with a long, time-consuming touchdown drive.  Then. G.W. quickly answered.  But another long, time-consuming touchdown drive gave Franklin County a 28-19 edge.  G.W. scored again, but simply ran out of time.
