HEMPHILL HORNETS

2018 Record: 4-7 Overall, 2-3 District

4th Place in District 12-3A-II

 

In 2018, the Hemphill Hornets managed to find their way into the playoffs out of rugged district 12-3A-II. To repeat that feat in 2019, Head Coach Gary Vanya will rely on the contribution of seven returning offensive starters and nine returning defenders.

 

Head Coach: Gary Vanya

Offense:

Seven starters return to the Hemphill offense in 2019.  Junior Wesley Ross will lead the Hornet offense.  The Hemphill rushing attack will be lead by junior back Drey'Lyn Washington (1st team all-district) and sophomore JaMarrius Hall (2nd team all-district).  Look for senior back Kordale Oliphant and junior Clay Butler to also see time in the backfield.  Senior wide out Logan Wilkerson (2nd team all-district) and junior receivers Jeremy Clancy and Chance Wilkerson, as well as junior tight end Braylon Simmons, will pace the Hemphill receivers. Senior center Koltin Ross (2nd team all-district), senior tackle Seth Murray (2nd team all-district) and senior guards Malik Wilkerson and Jed Scott will protect things up front.  Look for juniors Lance Collins and Tevor Harley to also see time on the line.

Defense:

Nine starters return to the Hemphill defense in 2019. Senior defensive ends Christian Burns (1st team all-district) and Malik Wilerson (2nd team all-district) and Collins (2nd team all-district at defensive tackle) will pace the line along with Simmons and Harley.  Oliphant (2nd team all-district) will lead the Hornet linebacker corp along with Hall.  Butler (2nd team all-district at safety), Logan Wilkerson (2nd team all-district at cornerback) will anchor the Hemphill secondary along with Wood (2nd team all-district at linebacker in 2018), Clancy and Wesley Ross.
