GO TIGERS!!
The Cocoa Tigers have plenty of state championship experience. But TONIGHT will be starting kicker, Mao Saito's first time playing on the big stage.
Saito is a foreign exchange student from Japan. This is his first season playing American football. Saito's transition to becoming a kicker was seamless, as he's played soccer for 14 years.
Cocoa plays Florida State University High School in the 2S state final TONIGHT in Tallahassee.
