Hawks announce NBL23 Captain

The Illawarra Hawks announced not one but two captains for the 2022/23 season, with both Sam Froling and Tyler Harvey set to lead the squad.

The co-captains replace retiring Hawks veteran AJ Ogilvy, and both are excited to take the helm. 

"It's an honour to be captain with this guy (Sam Froling), we had a great captain last year in AJ Ogilvy, who helped lead the way. Sam's an unbelievable person and player, and is going to be a great captain for our team," Harvey said. 

"To be able to lead this squad with him (Tyler Harvey) is pretty special to me, and I'm excited for the year to come," Froling said.

The Illawarra Hawks co-captains Sam Froling and Tyler Harvey recently modeled our new look kit for the upcoming season.

The design was inspired by the beautiful Illawarra vista, including the Wollongong Lighthouse, Seacliff Bridge and Steelworks.
