 2022 Preview 


       Cottage Hill Christian finished the 2021 season with a disappointing 3-6 record. Last year Cottage Hill Christian finished seventh in Class 3A region one with a 0-6 region record and failed to qualify for the playoffs.

       Cottage Hill Christian took a step backwards last year with their first losing season since 2017.

       Cottage Hill Christian was inconsistent offensively last year and they need some improvement if the Warriors want to be competitive. They only averaged 16.0 points a game.

       Since 2010, Cottage Hill Christian has gone a combined 47-73. Their 39.2% winning percentage ranks 41st in Class 3A over the past twelve seasons.

       Over the past 21 seasons, Cottage Hill Christian has managed to compile a record of 82-127. Their 39.0% winning percentage ranks 46th in Class 3A and 302nd in the AHSAA.




       The Warriors are led by head coach Bobby Parrish who is entering his second season at the helm. His team finished with a 3-6 record in his first season at Cottage Hill Christian.
