The Orangeburg-Wilkinson Bruins didn’t just make noise in 2025 — they broke the sound barrier. With a 10–2 overall record, a #10 state ranking in South Carolina’s Class AAA poll, and a #17 finish in the Mid-Carolina region, the Bruins overwhelmed Region 6-AAA with a brand of football built on grit, power, speed, and unity. Under the guidance of Head Coach Chris Carter, this team was more than just a playoff contender — it was a blueprint for building a tough, balanced, and explosive program. And the numbers? They tell the story. Orangeburg-Wilkinson’s offense was nothing short of explosive, racking up 4,451 total yards, including 2,383 passing yards and 2,068 rushing yards.
