Bill Jehling was hired Monday night during the school board meeting to take over as Howe’s new head football coach and athletic director. Jehling, a former Marine, was hired after spending the last two seasons as the head coach of the Class 4A Hamshire-Fannett Longhorns. Jehling is a native of San Antonio, but his father was transferred to Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. After attending a small private school there, he played football and baseball at Duquesne University, earning a bachelor’s and master’s degree. Following a short stint teaching in Pittsburgh, Jehling served in the United States Marine Corps from 1997 to 2005 including a tour of duty in Iraq.
