BGC Preview 2021: MacArthur Brahmas Head coach Hirst looking for success in second year of spread offense
SAN ANTONIO – Kevin Hirst’s first season leading the MacArthur football team onto the field was difficult, but he’s optimistic about 2021.
The Brahmas finished last year with an 0-9 overall record and the final margins of each game were fairly lopsided save for a 27-21 defeat against LEE. This year, Hirst hopes that year two of running the spread offense will be different. Running back Jonah Dunlap was a bright spot with 647 yards rushing and 3 touchdowns on the ground. He could also see time at quarterback alongside returning QB Jaxon Deason.
MacArthur kicks off their season Saturday against Marshall at Farris Stadium at 7 p.m.
