Hanna finally hit the road and came home from Greenwood with a shutout and a milestone win for Coach Tone. Now comes the week before the week.

Inside, we look at the starting eight, why Easley has to be nameless and faceless, and what a single negative play does to a drive.

Hanna Between the Hashes: 2026 Week 6

Hanna finally finished off Mauldin after lightning upstaged the game and stretched halftime across an entire weekend. The Mavericks struck early, but the Hanna defense put a stop emphatically after that. Now region play opens at home with a first-ever meeting against Fountain Inn, led by a senior quarterback who has started every win in school history. The question is how does Hanna improve coming off a bye week and launching into the second half of the season.

Hanna Between the Hashes: 2026 Week 5

The home opener was a long time coming, but it ended the wrong way. Turnovers and penalties turned a 14-0 lead into a 21-14 loss to Wren, Hanna's first defeat of 2026. The goals are all still intact, but this team has a question to answer that it has not faced yet. This week the Jackets host Mauldin to close non-region play, a 1-3 program with real size and three years of momentum under Coach Andre Cook.

Hanna Between the Hashes: 2026 Week 3

Hanna moved to 2-0 with a 30-7 win at Powdersville, jumping ahead on the second snap of the game and never trailing, powered by twelve different rushers and a defense that has now gone the entire season without allowing a touchdown after the first quarter. This week the Jackets stay on the road for a much longer trip to face the White Knoll Timberwolves, an 0-2 team whose record undersells the talent it puts on the field.
