HAWKS FILES
The Hawks have big expectations under first year head coach Josh Seese as he inherits a program that went 2-13 last season and is picked to finish eighth in the Conference Carolinas this season.
Depth has been an issue for the Hawks in the early stages of the program's existence as the team is in their fourth season. This season the Hawks return 19 players from a year ago. Chowan will look to the senior leadership of Noah Holloway, Austin Lee, and Jacob Ferretta as the original members of the first class.
Patrick Egan returns as the leading scorer from last season producing 44 goals and 14 assists. Noah Holloway scored 22 goals and recorded 19 assists.
Slater Bender returns in goal for his final year with the Hawks picking up 178 saves.
