LAST SEASON

8th place in Wesco South (1-7, 1-9)

RETURNING STARTERS:

Offense 5; Defense 4

LOOK AHEAD

Playing fundamentally sound football is a priority for the Hawks, who have an inexperienced offensive line and a first-year QB. Stopping the run and creating turnovers are keys for the defensive unit.

COACH’S COMMENTS

“We are counting on quite a few inexperienced players to step up … We do have a good core of senior leadership … If the team continues to come together, we might be able to do some good things this year.”

Tony Umayam,
