Hawks Earn Win Over Sharyland and Deliver 300th Win for Coach Molina

Harlingen South fended off a late Sharyland High rally and snapped a four-game losing streak, and Hawks coach Brian Molina notched career win 300 with a 67-61 win over the Rattlers on Tuesday night.

“I think back and I’m blessed,” Molina said. “I’m blessed to be at a great school like Harlingen South and to be able to coach the type of kids I have, and that to me is a testament to them and the program. It is great to get the win, yes, but I wouldn’t be here without the kids that I coach.”
