The Hawks charge onto the field for the matchup with Hinton.

Homecoming at Hartley-Melvin-Sanborn was twice as nice last week.

The Hawk mascot waves to the crowd during Friday's parade.

Not only did the volleyball team win its first match of the season with a 3-2 victory over Harris-Lake Park on Oct. 4, the football team clinched the Class A District 1 title with a 61-13 drubbing of Hinton on Friday night. It marked the first time since 1997 H-M-S hoisted an outright district crown.

Big wins may be the main headlines from Homecoming week, but they weren't the only stories.

A pep rally on Friday drew a big crowd of students and community members eager to root on the Hawks. With new Queen Anna Vander Veen and King Jesse Garcia reigning over festivities, hordes of Maroon and Gold-clad H-M-S fans then hit the streets in downtown Hartley for a parade featuring floats from both students and local businesses.

With school spirit at sky-high levels, the Hawks took the Blackhawks to the woodshed later that evening to wrap up a memorable week with a statement win.
