Hawk Talk
Friday night lights. Game-day nerves. School pride that runs deep.
Hawk Talk is your front-row seat to everything South River athletics—and the stories that make Seahawk Nation who it is. Hosted by Tom Frank and Grey Frank, the show brings the heartbeat of the school to the mic with conversations that go beyond the scoreboard.
Hear from coaches breaking down strategy, players sharing the grind behind the game, administrators offering insider perspective, alumni reflecting on what it means to wear the jersey, and fans who bring the energy every season. Hawk Talk dives into the moments that define teams, shape seasons, and build a community around sport.
Part sports show, part community hangout, and all Seahawk pride—this is where South River shows up, speaks up, and cheers together.

Alumni Legends, Lottery Wins, and a Battle with #1 Meade
This week’s Hawk Talk was recorded in the calm before the storm—right before tip-off of South River vs. top-ranked Meade in a packed gym on Alumni Night.
While the Seahawks ultimately fell 61–54 in a hard-fought battle, the real win came from the stories. We welcomed back Seahawks spanning generations—from the very first South River basketball team in 1979 to a legend who went on to play for Georgetown under the iconic John Thompson.
You’ll hear unforgettable alumni moments, including:
- Coach Dunne winning the lottery… yes, literally
- What South River basketball was really like back in the early days
- How the program’s culture has evolved—and what hasn’t changed at all
It’s a night that reminded everyone why Hawks basketball is bigger than the scoreboard.
