Question 1: What's the best thing about the Co-op with Harding?
The best thing about having a co-op with Harding is the elevated level of competition. We now have the depth to not only compete in games, but train efficiently every day at practice. It raises everyone's confidence on game day knowing we're properly trained for the game ahead of us.
Question 2: how has the co-op restored some Pride in Humboldt Football?
I've never seen so many people out at a football game at Humboldt, the support the community showed for that game against Roosevelt was a great sign that people are proud of what we are achieving as a team, and that they support us.
Question 3: What's one thing about the co-op that you're looking forward to for the future hawks who will particpate in it?
The future football players here at Humboldt have the luxury of having two school's coaching staffs competing together. Our coaching staff has to be one of the top in the state. Additionally, the players never have to guess whether or not they'll have enough players to form a team, or whether the team will be competitive. Those two things will always be a given.
