 2022 Preview 


       Carbon Hill completed the 2021 season with a 4-6 record. Last year Carbon Hill finished sixth in Class 3A region six with a 2-5 region record and failed to qualify for the playoffs.

       The Bulldogs last playoff victory came during the 1999 season. They would love to break through this year with a post season win.

       Since 2010, the Carbon Hill football program has struggled with a record of 28-93.

       Over the past 25 seasons, Carbon Hill has not won much with a record of 73-181. Their 29.0% winning percentage ranks 55th in Class 3A and 357th in the AHSAA.
