This week the Hawks prepare for the Newman-Smith Trojans. Newman-Smith had a bye week and will have their first district game on Birdville's turf. Last year Newman-Smith missed playoffs finishing 5th in district. Last time the Hawks and the Trojans faced off, the Hawks ran away with an emphatic 44-6 win. Hoping to recreate that success would mean all cylinders firing. Cylinders like quarterback Noah Normand who has thrown for 634 yards in three games and averaged 18.6 yards per completion. Running back Jaylen Davis is another Hawk needing to continue his strong play. Davis has compiled 246 yards carried in only 46 carries. Caleb Kelley and Brian Kent have combined for 471 out of the Hawks 634 receiving yards, 276 & 195 respectively. Kelley leads the district with Kent in second. Defensively, Jayden Nafegar and Anthony Martinez are powering the Hawks. In three games Nafegar has 16 solo tackles, 23 assists, one interception, and one caused and recovered fumble. Senior, Martinez also has impressive stats for the Hawks with 12 solo tackles, 22 assists and one fumble recovery. Going into game four, the Hawks will need these pivotal players looking sharp.
