StingEmALTO Posted August 25, 2019 Author Share Posted August 25, 2019 What has happened to Hawkins? I remember back in the day them having some really good teams. I can’t remember the last time they were very competitive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everything at their school was new and they seemed to be rolling in money, strong teams and tradition. The last couple decades have been tough in regard to their football program. Are they turning it around? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also most of those teams you are talking about the top athletes either moved away or the ones that were still in district had almost ALL girls lol. Girls sports have been very competitive. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
