HOOVER
In a recent turn of events, the Tornados will be forfeiting the remainder of their season due to the inability to field a varsity team. Hoover athletic director Jack Van Patten said the varsity squad does not have enough healthy players to field a team for the rest of the campaign but clarified that it was not disbanded and is expected next season.
The Tornados concluded their shortened campaign with a 1-6 overall record (0-4 in league).
