In high school Howell played multiple positions including running back, receiver, safety, and kicker. After college at Southwestern, he was a junior high football and basketball coach at Yukon Middle School for two years.

“I think so far, the most exciting moment coaching for me was our season opener against Okeene. Beating Okeene for the first time since 1999, and to shut them out on our field. I could not have been more proud of our players for coming out and representing our town and our school with great pride against a long lost gridiron rival.” Howell said. 

This Friday Canton football team will be traveling to Ringwood in hopes to snap a 9 season losing streak against the Red Devils.
