2016 Preview | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Corner finished the 2015 season with a disappointing 2-8 record. Last year Corner finished seventh in Class 5A region five with a 1-6 region record and failed to qualify for the playoffs. The Yellow Jackets would prefer to forget the past two seasons as they have finished with a 4-16 record. Since 2010, Corner has gone a combined 27-35. Their 44.0% winning percentage ranks 29th in Class 5A over the past six seasons. Over the past 25 seasons, Corner has managed to compile a record of 107-149. Their 42.0% winning percentage ranks 40th in Class 5A and 262nd in the AHSAA. The Yellow Jackets are led by head coach Zac Willis who is entering his fifth season at the helm. He has compiled a record of 16-25 over the past four seasons at Corner. Under his direction the Yellow Jackets have qualified for the playoffs once. They have not won a region crown with Coach Willis. Coach Willis' overall record as a head football coach in four season stands at 16-25 (39.0%). The Corner Yellow Jackets will play in Class 5A region six during the 2016 season. Following realignment, the Yellow Jackets remain in 5A but move from region five over to region six. The Yellow Jackets enter the 2016 season in the middle of a 6 game losing streak. They would like nothing better than to end the string of losses early in the season. This season, the Yellow Jackets will be a long shot for one of the four playoff spots in region six. The Yellow Jackets open the 2016 season at home against non-region opponent Dora on Friday, August 19 at Corner Stadium. Last year the Dora Bulldogs finished with an overall record of 0-10 and in eighth place in Class 5A region five. The Bulldogs closed out the regular season with a loss to Linden by a score of 38-24. Corner and Dora have met a total of 48 times on the football field. The Yellow Jackets have a 15-31-2 record against the Bulldogs. They last met in 2015 with Corner winning by a score of 37-17. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
