“That was the craziest student section we’ve played against this year”, one Fort Worth Country Day basketball player commented after the game. The Falcons were subject to the relentless USA chants by the Hawk faithful and blinded by a flurry of red white and blue. Momentum swings were the major theme of this “bird fight”. The Hawks shot well in the first half and were lead on the defense by senior guard Thomas Williamson, who had a trio of steals. The low scoring game came down to the final five seconds; a miracle shot by the Falcons downed the Hawks, 39-37. Although Country Day escaped this time with the victory, one thing resonates for all: Hawks basketball along with their loyal fans can give any team in the SPC a run for their money.
