<p>When they lost to Bushnell South Sumter in the first round of the state playoffs in 2023, the Titusville Terriers had their best season in decades.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Under the direction of head coach <strong>John Holmes</strong>, this team finished 10-2, losing only to two-time defending state champion Cocoa in the regular season.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>When the year came to an end and this team reflected on the season – where they established themselves as a state playoff contender. While it would have been easy for them to rest on the 10 wins, there was a hunger that followed them throughout spring and into the summer.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>It was a year that beating Palm Bay twice, shutting out longtime rival Titusville Astronaut and coming up with wins against Viera, Fleming Island and Melbourne gave this program credibility.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>If the Terriers are going to maintain and advance to the state playoffs again this coming season, the senior (2025) class will indeed be very important.</p>
