The Redhawks have finally broke through to win the Suffolk County Championship.
Half Hollow Hills East were led, as they were all season, by their star running back Daniel White. White ran for over 270 yards on the day carrying the ball 24 times. White's nose for the end zone was also on full display with four touchdown on the day.
Half Hollow Hills East upset #1 ranked East Islip, 41-14. After coming so close for so many years this is the first Suffolk Division II championship in school's history.
The Hawks were playing from ahead all game as they rook the first drive of the game all the way down and White took it in from inside the 5 yard line to make the score 7-0 and they never looked back. White ended his day with an explosive 90 yard TD run late in the game.
The one loss Half Hollow Hills East will now go on to meet the winner of the Nassau County championship Carey in the Long Island Class II championship game at Hofstra on Friday.
