SPACE COAST DAILY TV SPECIAL PRESENTATION

BREVARD COUNTY, FLORIDA – Cocoa High School will look to advance to the state semifinal Friday night when the Tigers host South Sumter Raiders in the Class 4A Regional Final on Space Coast Daily TV.

The Tigers (7-3) are led by their quarterback DJ Arroyo, running back Caziah Holmes and linebacker AJ Williams.

Anchoring the defense, Willams leads the team by a wide margin with 114 total tackles (49 solo). Williams has also racked up four sacks and one forced fumble.

South Sumter (9-2) will look to spoil Cocoa’s postseason as they enter tonight’s matchup having won their last six games. The Raiders last loss was over two months ago when they fell to Bishop Moore 42-28 on Sept. 20.

Should the Tigers win, they would face the winner of the Bradford at Bolles game, which is slated for 7:30 p.m. tonight.
