Message from AD Braswell:

Dear Hampton Middle School Community,

It is my great pleasure to welcome you to another exciting year of athletics at Hampton Middle School! As the Athletic Director, I am honored to serve our student-athletes, families, and dedicated supporters who make our program so special.

At HMS, we believe athletics play a vital role in the development of our students—fostering teamwork, discipline, sportsmanship, and perseverance both on and off the field. Whether on the court, the track, or the playing field, our student-athletes strive to represent our school with pride and integrity.

We are committed to providing a positive, inclusive, and competitive environment where all students can grow, lead, and succeed. Our coaches are passionate educators who not only teach the game but help shape confident, respectful, and resilient young people.

We encourage all families and community members to come out and support our teams. Your energy and involvement fuel our athletes and strengthen the spirit of the Hampton Hornets. Together, we can create a season full of memories, achievement, and school pride.

Thank you for your continued support. Let’s make it a great year—Go Hornets!

Warm regards,

Sandy Braswell

Athletic Director
