A HALLOWEEN THANK-YOU, HAWK NATION!

Megan Roush, Amber Hight, Julia Danbury, Kelsey Kater, Katie Scott, Jamie Cross, Jill Parton, Katie Harris, and the Blue Mound Fall Festival.
A special shoutout to Luka Popcorn for donating 50 bags of popcorn for our parade! Be sure to visit them and support a great local business!

Hawk Nation | Football Playoff Bound!
It was a big day on the football field as two undefeated 8-0 teams squared off on a beautiful, sunny fall afternoon! We came up short against a very good Amboy team, 66-37, in an action-packed game filled with scoring.
While the scoreboard didn't go our way, there was plenty to celebrate! We recognized our seniors, showed our support for breast cancer awareness with Pink Day, and welcomed our mini cheer campers to the field for a special halftime performance led by our awesome cheer team. Our band kept the energy high all afternoon, and the crowd brought great support, especially from our Couch Club section!
A huge thank-you to everyone who came out and helped make this such a memorable day for our players, seniors, and entire Hawk Nation community.
We'll learn our playoff opponent, date, and kickoff time later this evening, stay tuned. The season continues, and we're ready for some playoff football!
