Congrats to graduates Jack Fann, Nick Halterman, Isaac Kelley, & Cohen Vierling. Seems like yesterday you were freshmen!
You carried on the legacy of Howell Golf & left the program in better place.
This isn’t a goodbye, but a welcome to the Francis Howell Golf Alumni family!

Thanks to the current golfers that assisted with feeder last night & help with the record numbers of participants.
Several parents mentioned how much they appreciated current golfers helping on the course.
I'm thankful for the efforts to give back to future Howell golfers.

Kolton Kijanko has had quite a week. Not only was he All-State & helped the team earn 3rd place.
Last Thursday he also became the 2026 Howell Cup Champion after winning on the 1st playoff hole.
He is a first time winner of the intrasquad match play tourney that started in 2008.

Special shoutout to Cohen Vierling & Nick Halterman
Cohen Vierling became the first 4 time State Qualifier since 2012.
Unfortunately, he was unable to play at State due to injury.
Nick Halterman was prepared and stepped up to fill in.
Both exemplify the #WeBeforeMe attitude.

There was a lot of adversity this week with postponements, delays, injuries, tourney changes, weather, etc.
We preach controlling what we can control & these guys did that and then some, including filling the down time.
They represented Howell with class & made us all proud.

Our 3rd place finish was the best of any public school in the state in Class 5 (largest class in MO).
It also tied with the 2011 team as the best finish in school history (as far as I know).
Simply put, this team made history and cemented itself in Francs Howell Golf history!

The season started in March with hard work & preparation.
Two weeks ago 60 teams in Class 5 competed at Districts for the chance to make it to State.
Yesterday, Francis Howell competed in a one day rain shortened tournament & finished as the Class 5 3rd place team in 2026!

Play will begin at 8 a.m. with the same tee times and pairings previously scheduled.
