2016 Preview | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Monroe County completed the 2015 season with a 4-6 record. Last year Monroe County just missed making the playoffs with a fifth place finish in Class 4A region one with a 2-4 region record. The Tigers have not qualified for the playoffs since the 2003 season and would love to end that streak this year. The Tigers last playoff victory came during the 2003 season. They would love to break through this year with a post season win. Monroe County was inconsistent offensively last year and that needs to pick up if the Tigers want to be competitive. They only averaged 19.1 points a game. The Tigers would prefer to forget the past two seasons as they have finished with a 4-16 record. Since 2010, the Monroe County football program has struggled with a record of 12-48. Over the past 25 seasons, Monroe County has not won much with a record of 68-186. Their 27.0% winning percentage ranks 56th in Class 4A and 360th in the AHSAA. Their last winning season was 2006. The Tigers are led by head coach Juan Williams who is entering his third season at the helm. He has compiled a record of 4-16 over the past two seasons at Monroe County. The Tigers have yet to reach the playoffs under his direction. They have not won a region crown with Coach Williams. Coach Williams' overall record as a head football coach in ten season stands at 42-62 (40.4%). Over the course of his career, Coach Williams' teams have qualified for the playoffs a total of three times and won one region championship. The Monroe County Tigers will play in Class 4A region one during the 2016 season. It will be an uphill battle for the Tigers if they hope to grab one of the four playoff slots in region one this season. The Tigers open the 2016 season on the road against non-region opponent J.F. Shields on Friday, August 19 at Panther Field (The Pit). Last year the J.F. Shields Panthers finished with an overall record of 0-8 and in seventh place in Class 1A region one. The Panthers closed out the regular season with a loss to Florala by a score of 58-18. Monroe County and J.F. Shields have met a total of 36 times on the football field. The Tigers have a 32-4-0 record against the Panthers. They last met in 2010 with Monroe County winning by a score of 38-12. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
