Osceola Loaded Up Once Again

<strong>KISSIMMEE OSCEOLA FOOTBALL</strong><strong> 2022. </strong> <strong>Head Coach:</strong> Eric Pinellas <strong>2021 Record: 9-3</strong> <strong>THE KOWBOYS</strong> A year after this program reached the 8A finals, they were back at it again last season – falling short. With a new head coach and plenty of talent, the Kowboys saw their season come to an end in the second round of the state playoffs, dropping a 16-7 decision to Winter Garden West Orange. With that loss and setbacks to Cocoa (21-20) and to West Orange in the regular season, this team truly came close to getting back to the state title game. Wins over Kissimmee Tohopekaliga (69-0), Orlando Olympia (40-14), Bradenton Manatee (48-7), St. Cloud (56-0), Windermere (69-0), Orlando Dr. Phillips (26-6), Celebration (47-6) and Orange City University (13-8) in the regular season, and Lithia Newsome (28-21) in the first round of the state playoffs, it gave this team plenty to build on for 2022.
