To our Hawk Fans, and everyone who stood behind us this season…

Thank you.

Because of you, this 2025-26 season was special in ways that will be remembered for a long time. A 20-7 record. The most wins in program history. A sectional championship for the first time since 2005. And a regional championship, the first our school has ever seen.

With all of that, what made this run truly meaningful wasn’t just the trophies or records. It was the energy you brought around the program, the road support, and the belief. You showed up for us, and our players and program felt that.

To our seniors… thank you.
Thank you for your commitment, your toughness, and your ability to allow us to coach you hard. You helped set a new standard. The impact you’ve made goes far beyond wins and losses. You’ve helped build something that will last.

To our families, administration, and everyone behind the scenes, your support never goes unnoticed. This season was a shared effort, and we are grateful for all of you.

And to our fans, thank you for riding with us. For bringing the noise… For believing.

We’re proud of what was accomplished… but we’re not satisfied.

The foundation has been set. The standard has been raised.

And we’re already getting back to work.

Next season is coming and the goals have been raised. 🦅

With that being said, here’s one more round of applause for the 2025-26 season. It was one for the record books.

Lavell Love was the Hawks’ Swiss Army knife, our versatile 6th man who did a little bit of everything.

A long, slashing wing, Vell finished top 3 on the team in steals and rebounding, making an impact wherever the game needed him.

Take a look at his impact.

Michael Norton anchored the paint all season long, protecting the rim inside.

Mike set the program’s single season blocks record while finishing 2nd on the team in rebounding.

An explosive, athletic big, he altered shots, cleaned the glass, and finished at the rim with authority.

Take a look at his impact.
