Pulaski County 33 Cooper 7

You can throw the Blues factor out the window as Pig Skin stated as Cooper will open with the Birds next season so they won't be ducking anyone. Cooper will move up to 6A based singularly on enrollment which they will be at within 1-2 years anyway with the projected growth of Union. Cooper has played a solid 6A schedule over the last 4 years anyway so this will be of minimal change. The team is battle tested with a staff that gets the most out of the players it has.

 

Coach Borchers obviously is doing something right as there cannot be many schools in the State that have been in existence for only 7 years that have produced (3) District 1st place finishes, (2) Regional titles, (1) Runner-up Sectional, (1) Sectional title, and (1) State Runner-up title. There are teams in the State that have been in existence for 25 years that may not have accomplished this.

 

It may or may not have been said earlier but Cooper has nothing to be ashamed of as there is probably no one in this State out side of the Cooper circle that thought they would accomplish what they did in 2014. Predicted to finish 3-4 in the district and they tie for 1st and predicted to lose every playoff game and they go out and win 3 games, this team far exceeded expectations and this poster couldn't be more proud.

 

With nearly the entire 2-deep roster back next year they will more than hold their own in 6A next year by doing what they've always done and that is compete with no superstars, just good old fashioned hard work.

 

Congrats Jags on a great season!!

Nicely put,,,, I had no idea the program had accomplished so much in such a short period of time. I hope the team has continued success.
