1A: A “Payback” Game For Both Teams; Chaminade Wins Again

When Hawthorne and Madison County get together this evening (7:00) at Gene Cox Stadium Tallahassee, each team will have that chip on their shoulder. Let's talk about the Hornets, who lost in their first ever trip to the state finals last year to Baker, certainly have kept that loss with them since then and have gone undefeated – against some quality opponents. <strong>THESE COWBOYS ARE ROLLING</strong> Forget the fact that Madison County is a fixture at the state championships, they are also a team that has that revenge – a little payback on their minds, themselves. They were knocked off in the state semifinals – by Hawthorne, so they have been thinking about the same thing, and that's why this sets up to be quite a game. The Cowboys roll into this game on an eight-game winning streak, and yes, they are loaded and the defense has yielded just one touchdown in the last 23 quarters – which is amazing. <strong>Hawthorne Hornets</strong> <strong>Record: </strong>10-0 <strong>Head Coach: </strong>Cornelius Ingram <strong>10 Players To Watch: </strong>Kylyn Bryant, Sr., OL, [player_tooltip player_id="128635" first="Stanley" last="Cooks"], Jr., DL/OL, Brian James, Jr., RB, [player_tooltip player_id="128320" first="Tyler" last="Jefferson"], Jr., QB, Chris Jonas, Sr., DB, [player_tooltip player_id="50159" first="Chaz" last="Mackey"], Sr., QB, Artavious Mallary, Sr., OLB, Anthony Morgan, Sr., WR, Devin Ray, Sr., WR, Jailen Ruth, Jr., DE. <strong>2021 Schedule:</strong> Yulee, W 14-7 Gainesville P.K.
