  • Hawk Football tames the Plentywood Wildcats

    Oct 4, 2018

    The Hawk Varsity Football team took the field Saturday for a Homecoming game against Plentywood. The cool conditions on game day made for good playing weather, but meant fans needed to bring a bit of extra insulation. The Hawks, coming off a loss to Circle, were thirsty for redemption, and on their first drive steadily drove down the field on a series of Larry Hunt runs to score and put in the 2 point conversion to go up 8-0. Plentywood answered on their first drive with a series of pass...

  • Letters to the Editor

    Oct 4, 2018
