Hawthorne Hornets vs Anclote Sharks

Hawthorne Opens Season On The Road

Hawthorne Hornets Set to Open Season Against Anclote High School in High-Stakes Matchup

The Hawthorne Hornets, fresh off an undefeated 2023 season and two consecutive state championships, are ready to kick off their 2024 campaign on August 23 against the Anclote High School Sharks. This highly anticipated game will be broadcast live by the Hawthorne Sports Network (HSN), with coverage beginning at 7:00 p.m. by our very own Matt Surrency, who will be traveling with the team to bring fans all the action as it unfolds.

Hornets Poised for Another Strong Season

The Hornets, led by head coach Cornelius Ingram, have established themselves as a dominant force in Florida high school football. Last season, the team went 13-0, allowing just 103 points across 13 games, a testament to their stingy defense. Returning players like Zion Johnson, Naziy Gent, and Leland Johnson are expected to lead the charge once again. Zion Johnson, a three-year starter, anchors the secondary, while Gent returns as a linebacker after racking up 100 tackles, including 25 for a loss, five sacks, and an interception last year.

Hawthorne’s defense, known for its resilience and playmaking ability, will be crucial as they aim to continue their winning streak. The offense, although losing some key players to graduation, will see the return of standout running back Keenon Johnson, who rushed for over 1,500 yards and 16 touchdowns last season. With a strong offensive line returning intact, the Hornets are well-equipped to balance their attack as they break in new starters in the receiving corps.

Anclote Looking to Make a Statement

While the Hornets are undoubtedly the favorites, the Anclote Sharks are not to be underestimated. Playing at home, the Sharks will look to capitalize on the energy of their fans and make a statement against one of the top teams in the state. With a roster eager to prove itself, Anclote will aim to disrupt Hawthorne’s plans and start their season on a high note.

The game promises to be a test of Anclote’s mettle, as they face a Hawthorne team that has dominated in all phases of the game. For Anclote, this matchup is more than just a game—it’s an opportunity to measure themselves against the best and set the tone for the rest of the season.

Tune in for Live Coverage

HSN will bring you every moment of this exciting season opener, with live coverage beginning at 7:00 p.m. Matt Surrency, a familiar voice for Hornets fans, will be on-site to provide play-by-play commentary, expert analysis, and post-game interviews. Whether you're a dedicated Hornets fan or just love high school football, this is a game you won't want to miss.

Join us live on HSN to see if the Hawthorne Hornets can start their journey to a third straight state title with a win on the road, or if the Anclote Sharks will pull off a stunning upset. Be sure to tune in at 7:00 p.m. for all the action!
