Big Man For Falcons Fred Hauff Likes To Hit
Fred Hauff, 6 4 and 270 pounds, anchors the Frederick Falcons as middle guard. He moved from Wheaton to join the team after Bruce Bell told him about the Falcons, impressed coaches in practice, and became a defensive standout last season. He compares college and IFL play, noting tougher attitude and more knowledge in the pro style. Rookie Willie Allen, 671/2 by 235, is expected to ease pressure this year and help Hauff.
