THE WARRIORS
What this program did a year ago was check as many boxes as possible, the one they dreamed of never happened.
Winning 11 times, including 5-0 in district play, and two state playoff wins, head coach Mike Granato and this program did everything they could to reach the 8A state finals, falling short to eventual state champion Venice, 49-7.
With huge wins during the year against Orlando East River (48-0), Apopka Wekiva (49-3), Windermere (49-0), Orlando Dr. Phillips (45-7), Orlando Boone (44-14), Ocoee (28-0), Celebration (55-8), Kissimmee Osceola (35-21) and Orlando Olympia (21-9) in the regular season, and Plant City Durant (55-6) and Osceola for a second time, 16-7, several quality athletes stepped up.
Enter Coach Geno Thompson – as Granato went to Georgia – and this off-season has been much like last year, and the objective is the same – win it all.
With several impressive seniors and some quality underclassmen, keep an eye on the Warriors once again in 2022:
