FRANKFORT — The Frankfort football team jumped out to an 18-0 lead and held off an Onekama rally for a 30-20 win on Friday night.

The Panthers (4-5) recovered a pair of onside kicks in the first half and converted to build the 18-point lead before the Portagers (3-6) battled back.

“The rest of the game was just a dog fight,” said Onekama coach Jim Hunter.

Onekama’s Randy Pienta returned an onside attempt about 50 yards for a touchdown to get Onekama on the scoreboard.
