 2022 Preview 


       East Lawrence finished the 2021 season with a disappointing 3-7 record. Last year East Lawrence just missed making the playoffs with a fifth place finish in Class 3A region eight with a 2-4 region record.

       The Eagles have never won a playoff game in the school's history. They would like to break through and pick up that first post season victory in 2022. The Eagles hope to rebound after a down year. Last season they struggled winning just three games which followed a 9-2 record in 2020.

       Since 2010, the East Lawrence football program has struggled with a record of 34-87.

       Over the past 25 seasons, East Lawrence has not won much with a record of 66-187. Their 26.0% winning percentage ranks 57th in Class 4A and 365th in the AHSAA. The Eagles have struggled on the football field with only three winning seasons during this time.

Last year the Winston County Yellow Jackets finished with an overall record of 5-5 and in fifth place in Class 2A region five.
