The Coconut Creek High School football team has secured the No. 2 seed in the playoffs and will host Deerfield Beach High School on Friday, Nov. 13, at 7 p.m. in the opening round.
The Cougars finished the regular season 8-2. Their only other loss came on Oct. 30, when they fell 34-7 to Chaminade-Madonna College Preparatory School. A scheduled makeup game against Archbishop McCarthy High School on Wednesday was not played. Coconut Creek was instead credited with a win after leading 27-17 in the fourth quarter.
Deerfield Beach, the No. 7 seed in the bracket, started 4-0 but dropped its next four games before winning two straight to finish 6-4.
The winner advances to face either Monarch High School or Mater Lakes Academy in the semifinals. Archbishop McCarthy, Olympic Heights, Southridge and Piper high schools also made the postseason.
