Previous Seasons:
2018-19 was a rebuilding year, but the Broncos still had their share of successes. Wins over state tournament teams Gainesville, Cedar Shoals, Jefferson and Houston County highlighted an extremely tough schedule where Brookwood’s 26 games included 19 match-ups against teams that qualified for the state tournament. Brookwood has 14 trips to the state playoffs since 1989, including an Elite 8 appearance in 2017.
