Hawks Open Season with Tough Test Against Iowa Park
LHS faces Iowa Park in Thursday's opener as Pat Tone brings a new run oriented system and 12 sets. Lawton assistant Rick Hudak says Iowa Park is small but tough with a strong defense led by linebackers and a capable passing game. The Wolverines must tighten pass coverage after Friday’s missed assignments including a 70 yard TD, and tackle better to handle the Hawks.
