PITTSBURGH (93-7 THE FAN)-- Franklin Regional head football coach Greg Botta joined 93-7 The Fan's John Phillips Saturday to discuss his team's decisive 38-0 victory over Ringgold, a senior night win that gives the Panthers at least a share of the Class AAA Keystone Conference title.

Greg also weighs the rest of the competition in Triple-A, and reminisces about his time at now-defunct Swissvale High School.
