HAWKS DELIVERING ACHIEVEMENTS ON AND OFF THE FIELD Heartland athletic teams have excelled during the first three years of Mid-West Athletic Conference (M-WAC) competition. The College’s four athletics programs have excited everyone with another year of top-notch performances. Highlights include: --The Hawks’ baseball team continued making its presence known on the national scene, finishing the 2010 season with a 45-11 record. The Hawks collected the M-WAC championship, ranking as high as 2nd in the national polls before battling toward a second-place finish at the Region 24 tournament. --The defending national champion Hawks’ softball team made its way to the 2010 National Junior College Athletic Association’s Division II National Tournament for the third consecutive year. The Hawks went 38-20 overall, dropping only four of their 30 conference games. --Both the men’s and women’s soccer teams experienced successes during the fall 2009 season, setting the tone for a brilliant 2010 season. Men’s soccer produced the NJCAA’s top scorer, Javier Torres, and finished 13-4-1 on the season. --The Corn Crib stadium is complete. Located at the east end of Heartland’s Normal campus, the Hawks are able to take advantage of the artificial turf playing surface, which serves as the home field for all of Heartland Athletics as well as the Normal CornBelters.
