Class 7A, Region 3, District 10

Teams: (2014 record)
Countryside Cougars (7-3)

2015 Outlook:
Arguably the toughest route to the playoffs for any team, in any district in the region and most definitely the toughest group of teams in Pinellas County for 2015 season. The Cougars look to shake things up this season and get back to the playoffs where they feel as though they belong, along with the defending regional champions from East Lake looking to keep it that way and maintain their top dawg status in the county. Throw in St. Petersburg who drops from Class 8A and Pinellas Park who was the runners-up to East Lake last season and you’ve got sheer mayhem…potentially. Oh yeah, don’t forget about the Warhawks who will surprise some folks for sure this season.
