Hawks Fall in Season Opener

The Harding Hawks varsity football team opened up it's season on Thursday, Aug. 14 against Providence Christian Academy out of Murfreesboro. The Lions offense opened up the scoring with three first quarter touchdowns as Harding's young and inexperienced team adjusted to game speed for the first time this season. 

Down big at halftime, Harding came out and played much better in the second half. Quarterback Riley Husbands '26 connected with tailback Nash Donohue '27 on a bubble screen in the 4th quarter to get the Hawks on the scoreboard. After a Donohue interception, the Hawks were back in business and looking to put a second score on the board, but ran out of time. 

Harding will back in action on Wednesday, Aug. 27 when it hosts BGA at Sohr Track and Field at 5:00pm.
