Redhawk football player to become Hartwick Hawk
A second Liberty Redhawk has signed to play football with a DIII Empire 8 team next year.
Andrew McPhillips will become a Hartwick College Hawk this fall.
At a signing ceremony on Wednesday, April 9, Andrew, sitting alongside his parents, Mike and Karen, and brother Nick, made his official commitment to the Oneonta college. Andrew will likely face off on the gridiron against Redhawk teammate Mathew Lutz, who will be playing for Alfred University.
Andrew has been playing football his entire life. He was a member of many non-school-based and invite-only offense/defense all-star championship teams that played in various NFL stadiums. He was a four-year member of the Liberty varsity football team, three of those as a two-way starter on the offense and defensive line.
His sophomore year was cut short when he broke his femur in the opening game that season, but he rehabbed and bounced back to finish his last two years strong as center on offense and defensive tackle on defense. Andrew also played on special teams units and represented Liberty in the exceptional senior all-star game this year.
“The Liberty Redhawk Football family is proud of Andrew and wish him the best of luck at Hartwick,” head coach Adam Lake said.

Redhawk to play DIII football at Alfred University
A Liberty Redhawk will be spreading his wings at Alfred University next year, signing to play football with the Saxons.
At a signing ceremony on Monday, March 31, Matthew Lutz, flanked by his parents, Kim and Ed, made his official commitment to AU, a NCAA Division III team that plays in the Empire 8 conference.
Matthew was a four-year varsity starter for the varsity football team, playing offensive tackle and a defensive end. He also saw time on special teams as a long snapper.
In his junior year, Matthew won the coaches award for his hard work and dedication in the weight room in the off season, which led to success on the field.
“Matthew signing with Alfred University is a prime example of having a dream, and what happens when you put in the time and the hard work necessary to achieve it,” Redhawks Coach Adam Lake said. “The Liberty football family is proud of Matthew and wish him the best of luck at Alfred University.
