Harvester Student Signs with Carson-Newman

HCA Celebrated National Signing Day with Senior Brent Brown and His Family

Harvester Christian Academy is excited to announce that its varsity football MVP and offensive player of the year, senior Brent Brown, signed with the Carson-Newman Eagles. In his career at HCA, Brent rushed for 1,600 yards and scored 21 touchdowns.

Carson-Newman's 2020 signing class is comprised of players from five states. "This class is really an extension of last year's class," Carson-Newman head football coach Mike Clowney said. "The big thing for us was making sure we are spacing out our roster so that we are set up for success over a long period of time. We had to be very targeted with who we recruited this year. We're excited about who we brought in at quarterback, linebacker and defensive line."

Harvester's 2020 football season was one of its most successful. The Hawks' undefeated, 9-game season culminated with a win in the first-ever "Battle for the State Line" versus Lighthouse Christian Academy in Pinson Valley, AL. The team amassed 4,593 total yards, averaged 52.7 points per game and allowed opponents a mere 9.7 points per game. (Read more about this incredible season: https://patch.com/georgia/doug...)
