Franklinton coach Jeff Tageant was honored for his 500th-career victory, which he achieved on Tuesday, March 12 in a 3-1 win over Pine.
Surrounded by his team, family and Franklinton administration, Tageant was presented with a plaque.
“I thought it was a special night,” Tageant said. “It was a great honor to have my family out there with my wife Toni and my sons (Evan and Clay) as assistant coaches. Drew Brooks played for me and has been an assistant for the last 11 years. It’s a testament to the community because they’ve backed the program.”
