NASHVILLE — Franklin High School football head coach Alex Melton knew his team had only a small margin of error on Friday night.
Unfortunately for the Admirals, they drifted outside of it on several occasions.
Traveling to McGavock for a non-district game, the Admirals suffered three costly turnovers and missed out on several key third-down opportunities during a 35-14 loss to the Raiders.
McGavock’s defense converted all three of Franklin’s turnovers into touchdowns, including returning a pair of interceptions for scores.
