DOTHAN, Ala. (WDHN)—The Houston Academy Raiders finished off their 2025 season with an overall record of 6-5 and yet another appearance in the postseason. For years, Houston Academy has competed in the AHSAA's 3A Region 2 classification, facing pretty evenly matched opponents week in and week out. But that all changed earlier this year after the AHSAA split private and public schools into their own classifications, and you could argue that Houston Academy got the unluckiest draw of all time.

This Houston Academy team will be led by a roster filled with experience, as the Raiders return 16 seniors.
