The Colony High School is a 5A football program in the state of Texas with an enrollment of 2054 students and plays in UIL 5A District 5 Division 1.  Cougar Nation football began in 1986 and plays all of their home games on campus in Tommy Briggs Stadium.  Tommy Briggs was the first head football coach at The Colony High School and spent 16 seasons leading the cougars (1986-2001).  In 2010 The Colony High School opened a new football field house located on the north end of Tommy Briggs Stadium.  The field house is a state of the art facility with five coaches offices, a conference room, a team meeting room that seats 85 players, three locker rooms, a training room, and an equipment/laundry facility.  The Colony High School currently has 200 athletes involved in the football program and during the 2017 season had 5 teams competing on a weekly basis; Varsity, 2 JV teams and 2 freshman teams.  The Cougars are currently on a run of 5 straight years in the playoffs.  We are excited about the 2018 Season and the future at The Colony HS.

Go Cougars!

Parents, Students, and Guests—

I would like to take this opportunity to welcome you to Tommy Briggs Cougar Stadium for another great season of TCHS Football.  

In 2017-18, we themed our year “The Power to Prevail,” and our students, staff, and community reached out and achieved truly great things throughout the year.   The football program you are watching tonight reached the playoffs for the fifth straight year, a school record. Our TCHS Band made the UIL State Marching Contest for the first time since 2008, our Cougar Cheerleaders and Topcats Drill Team saw phenomenal accomplishments in their contest seasons, and our TCHS JROTC saw program expansion that has not been seen in several years.  In addition to these accomplishments by organizations participating tonight, record accomplishments were seen in all areas of our academics, arts, electives, and other organizations during the 2017-18 year, and we are grateful to you, our wonderful community, for the partnership and support to make this possible.

As we celebrate that record of success, we are now entering a new year of anticipated success at TCHS, and we welcome you for this great journey.  Our theme during the 2018-19 year at TCHS will be “This Time……..Is Our Time”!  We truly believe our students can accomplish anything they set their hearts and minds to at TCHS, and we believe these are very special times shaped for our students to grow and begin accomplishing these dreams.  We want our students to embrace these times as uniquely theirs, to work hard, and to believe in their abilities. As they do this, the sky is the limit to what they can accomplish and the difference they can make in the world.  We again appreciate your support in the journey behind, and thank you for your continued work with us this year, as truly “This Time…..Is Our Time”!

Enjoy tonight’s game!
