Howe at Pottsboro 2017



It is game number 750 in Howe Bulldogs history.  Howe has an overall record of 381-344-24 in 74 seasons.  Howe has lost six straight games for the first time since losing seven in a row in 2012.  The Dogs are 0-5 for the first time since 2005.  The 2005 team started 0-8 and finished 1-9.

The bad news:  Howe is averaging only 10.40 points per game on offense and allowing 35.60 points per game.

The good news:  None of those numbers matter because district play starts tonight with Pottsboro (3-2) who were hit hard by graduation.

The Cardinals are still led by their fantastic quarterback Hunter Watson and their great head coach Matt Poe.
