Why this one matters
Both teams open their seasons at 0-0. The Flyers and Warhawks last met in 2023, a classic late-game battle in which Franklin County edged Great Crossing 23-21 on Aug. 18, 2023 (final linescore: Franklin County 9-7-7-0, Great Crossing 0-0-7-14). That close result sets the stage for another tight early-season matchup and gives this nonleague opener added intrigue for both rosters and their fans.
