His highest national honour came at the 1996 USA Indoor Track and Field Championships, where he succeeded Allen Johnson to the 60 m hurdles title with a run of 7.46 seconds. This placed him at the top of the yearly rankings for the event that year. This did not translate into success outdoors, however, as he failed to make the final at the Olympic trials and his season’s best time of 13.33 left him out of the global top ten for the first time in six years. He moved back inside the top ten in the 1997 and 1998 seasons, including a lifetime best of 13.17 seconds in Ingolstadt in 1998, but a sixth place at the 1997 USA Outdoor Championships was his best performance on the national circuit. He was last at the 1997 IAAF Grand Prix Final. He retired from athletics at the end of the 1999 season.
Hawkins had a career high in the 1995 season. He claimed a 60 m hurdles silver medal on his international debut at the 1995 IAAF World Indoor Championships, forming an American 1–2 with winner Allen Johnson. Hawkins ran a personal record of 7.41 seconds to take the medal. He again ranked third globally in the event (behind Johnson and Jackson) and the time had moved him to fourth in the all-time American rankings, after Greg Foster, Roger Kingdom, and Johnson. As of 2015 he remains in the top-20 all-time for the discipline. An outdoor medal followed at the 1995 Pan American Games in Mar del Plata, Argentina, as he took bronze in a time of 13.54 seconds, finishing behind the higher profile athlete Kingdom and Emilio Valle of Cuba. At the Athletissima meet in Lausanne he set a personal record time of 13.22 seconds. In spite of these successes, he was outside the top three at the national championships both indoors and out, and closed his season injured at the 1995 IAAF Grand Prix Final (ending seventh).
