After seven years of 8 Man competition Holley is returning to 11 man football this season playing an independent schedule.
The Hawks will open the season at Cardinal O’Hara in Tonawanda on Saturday September 6 and then host CG Finney on September 13.
“It will be a challenge,” said new Hawks Coach Wyatt Wink. ” It is a whole new scheme offensively and defensively. It is a larger field with more players and playing 11 man will be new to a lot of our players but I think we can be competitive.”
Holley’s veteran group includes senior running backs Brody Fiorito and Kevin Robinson, senior wide receivers Landyn Burch and Colton Bradley and senior linemen Grant Smith, Caleb Donley and Braden Read along with junior linemen Immanuel Cornell, Anthony Feliciano and Blake Fusano.
Newcomers include the sophomore trio of quarterback Joseph Lombari, running back Isaiah Williams and wide receiver Matteo Caterisano.
Holley’s graduation losses included the skill position quintet of quarterback Destin Kuyal, running back Hunter Jewell-Smith and wide receivers Vinny Golisano, Jacob Pitcher and Mason Moyer.
