Pleasant Valley finished the 2021 season with a disappointing 1-9 record. Last year Pleasant Valley finished sixth in Class 3A region five with a 1-6 region record and failed to qualify for the playoffs. The Raiders lost as many games as in any season since 2015. The Raiders have not qualified for the playoffs since the 2010 season and would love to end that streak this year. They have never won a playoff game in the school's history. The offense struggled putting points on the score board as Pleasant Valley averaged scoring just 9.6 points a game. The Raiders also struggled on the defensive side of the football as they found little success in stopping opposing offenses and allowed an average of 43.1 points a game. The Raiders would prefer to forget the past two seasons as they have finished with a 4-16 record. Since 2010, Pleasant Valley has gone a combined 38-83. Their 31.4% winning percentage ranks 49th in Class 2A over the past twelve seasons. Over the past 25 seasons, Pleasant Valley has not won much with a record of 67-186. Their 26.0% winning percentage ranks 56th in Class 2A and 365th in the AHSAA. The Raiders have struggled on the football field with only four winning seasons during this time. The Raiders are led by head coach Jonathan Nix who is entering his eighth season at the helm. He has compiled a record of 20-50 over the past seven seasons at Pleasant Valley. The Raiders have yet to reach the playoffs under his direction. They have not won a region crown with Coach Nix. Coach Nix's overall record as a head football coach in thirteen season stands at 57-78 (42.2%). Over the course of his career, Coach Nix's teams have qualified for the playoffs a total of three times and won one region championship. The Pleasant Valley Raiders will play in Class 2A region six during the 2022 season. The Raiders may find the schedule slightly easier this season with the move down in classification from Class 3A to 2A. They will compete in region six this year. The Raiders enter the 2022 season in the middle of a 6 game losing streak. They would like nothing better than to end the string of losses early in the season. With a little luck and some improvement, the Raiders could find themselves challenging for one of the playoff spots for region six this season. Pleasant Valley has failed to qualify for the playoffs since 2010 but hope to return to the post season this year. The Raiders open the 2022 season at home against non-region opponent Donoho on Friday, August 26 at Raider Stadium. Last year the Donoho Falcons finished with an overall record of 2-7 and in sixth place in Class 1A region five. The Falcons closed out the regular season with a loss to Westbrook Christian by a score of 37-26. Pleasant Valley and Donoho have met a total of 13 times on the football field. The Raiders have a 8-5-0 record against the Falcons. They last met in 2021 with Donoho winning by a score of 25-0. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
