Franklin Regional Boys Soccer Takes PIAA First Round 6-2 over Bradford

Five players scored goals for Franklin Regional, including a pair by Anthony DiFalco, as the WPIAL Champion Panthers beat Bradford 6-2 in a PIAA Class 3A boys soccer opening round game on Tuesday, November 5, at North Allegheny's Newman Stadium.

DiFalco's first tally came with just over 23 minutes elapsed in the first half as he took a penalty kick awarded to the Panthers and buried it into the twine.

Zack Lorenz got the Panthers' next goal in the 36th minute, with DiFalco's second goal coming two minutes later. The Panthers held a 3-0 lead as the horn sounded for halftime.

Bradford got one back in the 50th minute as Alex Marrone scored past Franklin Regional keeper Gianni Diacopoulos to make it 3-1.

But the Panthers quickly added three more markers in a five minute span, with Blaker Cooper finding the net in the 57th minute, Garrett Beaver in the 58th, and Zach Johnston closing out the Franklin Regional scoring in the 62nd minute.

Bradford's Isaiah Pingie added the final goal for the Owls as he connected on a penalty kick in the 69th minute, making the final score 6-2.

Franklin Regional (20-0-1) will play Erie Cathedral Prep on Saturday in a quarterfinal matchup at a site to be announced.
