Hawks Football Adds Hendrix To Their 2024 Schedule
MONTGOMERY,Ala.- Huntingdon Hawks football, coming off an 8-2 season and a runner-up finish in the USA South, has released their schedule for the 2024 season.
The Hawks open their season on September 7th at home looking to take down the Berry Vikings, who defeated the Hawks 67-34 last season. The Vikings finished 2nd in the SAA with an overall record of 9-1 and a conference record of 7-1
With the recent announcement of the closing of Birmingham-Southern College, Huntingdon has scheduled a home-away series with the Hendrix Warriors of the SAA. Last season, Hendrix finished fifth in the conference with an overall record of 3-7 and a conference record of 3-5.
Head Coach Mike Turk on the upcoming season:
"We begin with a very tough Berry team, so we will find out early what we are made of. The open week after that will hopefully be an opportunity for us to address whatever issues are exposed week 1, and then we will play 9 straight weeks. Conference play begins in week 3, with a non-conference trip to Hendrix in week 4, then the rest of our conference schedule. With our second game being a conference game, we have less time to prepare for conference play than in years past. This will most certainly put more importance on what we accomplish during training camp come August."
