Mix and match is back.

The Hawks will again wear different uniform color combinations in select games this season. The Hawks’ three primary uniform colors — white, gray and red — were designed so they could be worn in combination when created for last season. On most occasions, the Hawks wear white at home and gray on the road.

However, during Sunday road games, the Hawks broke from one color and mixed gray with the red alternate road uniform. They combinations will be used again this season for Sunday road contests.

The different combination uniforms were not well-received, particularly on a national level, last season.
