Howell Earns Lone Star Honor

ALPINE, Texas – Freshman Will Howell was named the Lone Star Conference Offensive Player of the Week for Week 5.  He becomes the first Lobo to earn an LSC weekly award twice.

Howell had a strong performance in leading Sul Ross State to a 56-43 win over Eastern New Mexico (Oct. 3).  He was 37-of-46 for 454 yards and four touchdowns and ran for 82 yards and two touchdowns to total 536 yards in total offense.  Howell's total offense is third best in NCAA program history.

Howell had a hand in the first two touchdowns and last two touchdowns of the game.  He threw a 42-yard strike to freshman Keithron Lee and then ran for a score in the first quarter.  In the fourth tied at 43-43 with 2:35 to go, Howell threw two touchdown passes in 56 seconds for the win.

Howell helped the Lobos to 589 yards in total offense.  This is the first Lone Star win since Nov. 2, 2024, when they beat Eastern New Mexico.
