A victory Friday for Saint Stephen's gives the Falcons (4-5) their third straight .500 season.
But first year head coach Stan Brown thinks a victory over host Cardinal Mooney would mean more than just a the record.
"We want to go out on a high note," Brown said, "especially against a Class (2B) school."
The Class 1B Falcons' last game against a school that size didn't go well - they lost 48-7 to Class 2A Boca Raton St. Andrew's on Oct.2.
"I think our kids were kind of shocked," Brown said.
So they are hoping to right the ship against the Cougars (2-7), who have lost seven straight.
"Forget their record. They're a 2B school," Brown said.
Saint Stephen's returns both of their quarterbacks, Adam Vining and Michael Roberts, as well as Sam Mire, who runs the ball and catches passes, as well as other key players Brown will be looking at Friday.
Regardless, the coach is happy with how his team matured since getting shut out by St. Petersburg Admiral Farragut during the Kickoff Classic.
"We've fought hard," Brown said, "and we have shown a lot of progress."
