       Millry completed the 2016 season with a 4-7 record. With their 4-3 region record and a fourth place finish in Class 1A region one, the Wildcats earned a spot in the playoffs in 2016. Millry's season came to an end in the first round of the playoffs when they fell to Georgiana by a score of 28-6.

       Since 2010, Millry has gone a combined 33-41. Their 45.0% winning percentage ranks 29th in Class 1A over the past seven seasons.

       Over the past 25 seasons, Millry has managed to compile a record of 151-132. Their 53.0% winning percentage ranks 21st in Class 1A and 154th in the AHSAA.
