Winter Park Looks To Turn Things Around

<strong>WINTER PARK </strong><strong>2022</strong> <strong>Head Coach:</strong> Tim Shifflet <strong>2021 Record: </strong>6-5 <strong>THE WILDCATS</strong> When this team won five of the first six games to start the 2021 season, it caught everyone’s attention. But it didn’t last. While the Wildcats would win just once more (49-0 Orlando Colonial) the rest of the way, it became frustrating to the coaches and players that basically every game the rest of the way could have easily been victories. Only a 16-point loss in the playoffs to then defending 8A state champion Sanford Seminole was a game that truly got away. Losses to power Orlando Edgewater (41-35), Orlando Timber Creek (9-7) and Altamonte Springs Lake Brantley (17-14) were all contests this team could have won and it would have completely turned the season around. As the spring is now upon us, the large rising senior class remembers the 2021 season – and with hard work in the off-season – there is plenty of motivation. Here is a look at some of the prospects that college coaches will watch this spring and into the summer: <strong>CLASS OF 2023</strong> Jackson Brice (TE, 6-4, 185 – 3.1 GPA) Parker Clem (DB/LB, 6-0, 180 – 3.9 GPA) Hudson Gibbs (DB/RB, 5-9, 170 – 3.85 GPA) Zion Gunn (WR/DB, 6-3, 175 – 2.47 GPA) Watson Hewitt (OL/DL, 6-3, 220 – 3.92 GPA, 35 ACT) Jayvyn Hunt (DB/WR, 5-10, 160 – 2.4 GPA) Brody Richardson (TE/DE, 6-2, 215 – 2.9 GPA) [player_tooltip player_id="128525" first="Torian" last="Roberts"] (DB, 6-0, 170 – 4.3 GPA) Amaris Shaw (RB/DB, 6-0, 175 – 2.71 GPA) T.J.
