Coconut Creek Wins Keiser 7-on-7

Coconut Creek has been producing talent for so long, it seems like many who follow high school football tend to take the Cougars for granted. With some impressive coaches and talent over the past decade, this is a program that has been very close to getting over that playoff hump for a long time, and head coach <strong>Johnnie Sloan</strong> and an impressive coaching are ready to build this team back into a serious contender. On Saturday, this program played well all day, and in the end, took home the Keiser University Summer 7-on-7 event in West Palm Beach. Beating Port St. Lucie Centennial in the finals, this is a team that certainly turned heads on a warm summer day. With so many independent events going on during the NCAA “Dark Recruiting Period”, Keiser and head coach <strong>Doug Socha</strong> rolled the welcome mat for so many teams from all over. <strong>COUGARS ROAR WAS LOUD</strong> This is a team that has a chance to be special.
