2023 Preview | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Providence Christian completed the 2022 season with a 4-6 record. Last year Providence Christian just missed making the playoffs with a fifth place finish in Class 3A region two with a 4-4 region record. Providence Christian was inconsistent offensively last year and they need some improvement if the Eagles want to be competitive. They only averaged 16.4 points a game. Since 2010, Providence Christian has gone a combined 83-57. Their 59.3% winning percentage ranks 21st in Class 3A over the past thirteen seasons. Over the past 17 seasons, Providence Christian has managed to compile a record of 104-78. Their 57.0% winning percentage ranks 21st in Class 3A and 114th in the AHSAA. The Eagles are led by head coach Kenny Keith who is entering his twelveth season at the helm. He has compiled a record of 68-49 over the past eleven seasons at Providence Christian. Under his direction the Eagles have qualified for the playoffs a total of six times. They have not won a region crown with Coach Keith. The Eagles have one of the toughest overall schedules in Class 3A. Their opponents had a combined record of 65-45 last season. That ranks 6th in Class 3A and 28th in the AHSAA. The Eagles could find themselves challenging for one of the playoff spots for region two this season with a few breaks and a little improvement. Providence Christian missed the playoffs the past couple of seasons but hope to return to the post season in 2023. The Eagles open the 2023 season on the road against non-region opponent Highland Home on Friday, August 25 at Clay Stadium. Last year the Highland Home Flying Squadron finished with an overall record of 12-2 and in second place in Class 2A region three. The Flying Squadron lost in the semi-finals round of the Class 2A playoffs to B.B. Comer by a score of 44-15. Providence Christian and Highland Home have met a total of 3 times on the football field. The Eagles have a 0-3-0 record against the Flying Squadron. They last met in 2022 with Highland Home winning by a score of 28-6. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
