RED OAK - The Hawks hosted the Mabank Panthers on Tuesday, Feb. 2 in a District match up.
This game was only close at the tip-off. After that is was all Hawks, I mean ALL Hawks.
They scored inside, outside, three point line and even slammed down a couple of dunks.
Mabank was out manned and out hustled by a faster and more physical Hawks’ team.
The Hawks had five players in double digit scoring on the night.
The varsity team easily defeated Mabank 93-68.
The varsity team also knocked off Terrell last Friday night and are currently in third place in District 15-4A.
The Hawks know have two tough district games left against Mesquite Poteet at home on Friday 2-12 and their final regular season game at Forney on 2-16.
The JV squad didn’t mess around either during their game and soundly beat the JV Panthers 97-42.
The freshman team didn’t fare as well.
They had a small lead late into the fourth, but only to see Mabank come back and beat them on a last second three point shot and lost 62-63.
