 2017 Preview 


       Monroe County completed the 2016 season with a 5-5 record. Last year Monroe County finished sixth in Class 4A region one with a 1-5 region record and failed to qualify for the playoffs.

       The Tigers improved in 2016 with their first winning season since 2006. The Tigers won as many games as in any season since 2006. 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.

       Since 2010, the Monroe County football program has struggled with a record of 17-53.

       Over the past 25 seasons, Monroe County has not won much with a record of 73-191. Their 28.0% winning percentage ranks 56th in Class 4A and 356th in the AHSAA.

       The Tigers are led by head coach Juan Williams who is entering his fourth season at the helm. He has compiled a record of 9-21 over the past three 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 eleven season stands at 47-67 (41.2%). 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 2017 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 2017 season at home against non-region opponent J.F. Shields on Friday, August 25 at Tiger Stadium. Last year the J.F. Shields Panthers finished with an overall record of 0-10 and in eighth place in Class 1A region one.

       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 2016 with Monroe County winning by a score of 54-0.
