Howe traveled to Sadler on Friday night to take on a depleted Ram team that started their third-string quarterback. Their sidelines resembled a crutch factory and Howe took complete advantage of the opportunities and ran wild for 338 yards rushing and 350 overall Howe's running back committee was led by Cameron Blesi who ran 13 times for 177 yards while his counterpart Austin Lee rushed for three touchdowns on the night

The Bulldogs led 27-0 midway through the second quarter and then played cat and mouse with the Rams for the remainder of the game

Howe won the coin toss and elected to receive It proved to be a good decision as the Dogs drove 69 yards on their initial drive on seven plays

The big play was a 51-yard run by Blesi that eventually would lead to a 19-yard touchdown by Lee A botched snap and hold on the PAT had Layton Elvington trying to fire the ball into the endzone for the 2point conversion, however, the pass fell incomplete when Elijah Campbell and Devin Porter each tried to grab the ball simultaneously

S&S, with wide receiver-turned quarterback Cole Sloan in shotgun formation on the first play of the game had the ball sail over his head which resulted in a Howe recovery at the 9 yard line by Arturo Lowder Three plays later, Blesi scored on a

2-yarder behind Parker Blount and JC Helpenstell The 2-point conversion failed and Howe led, 12-0 with 6:58 left in the first quarter.

The Rams next possession ended on a punt that gave Howe the ball at their own 37 yard line Again, Lee capped off the drive with a 17yarder The drive was 6 plays and 63 yards and took only 3:04 off the clock Blesi ran in the 2-point conversion and Howe's lead bumped up to 20-0 ith 1:30 left in the first quarter

S&S took the ball into the second quarter during their next possession but turned the ball over on downs Howe punted for the first time which set up a 7-play drive by the Rams that ended on another bad snap that gave the Bulldogs the ball at the Ram 7 yard line Lee plowed over for his third touchdown of the first half and after Calley Vick's PAT, Howe led 27-0 with 5:17 left in the second quarter

The Rams finally found the end zone before the half when Joey Baggs (who was later also injured) ran it over from the 18 yard line The 2-point conversion was no good and Howe led 27-6 with 3:54 left in the second quarter

Howe's next possession started at their own 37 yard line and ended seven plays later on a fumble near midfield The Bulldogs got it back

Lana Rideout did it all in Howe

In the fall of 1977, The How Enterprise, owned by Jim an Echols at the time, was near to Jim Denney, who also ow The Van Alstyne Leader Ho even after several publicatio Denney, the sale fell through the Echols retained ownersh problem was that Jim Echols already taken a position in th eastern part of the country, assuming he had sold the bu That left his wife Nita to sta run The Howe Enterprise fu until they could find a buyer Echols began to tell Lana Ri that she could do the job as e After a few trials, she decide accept the position as editor Enterprise in December of 1 A few days later, Lana's hus Dale Rideout purchased the as a Christmas present for L and for 38 years, they becam voice of Howe, Texas.

"She (Nita) started telling me that I could do it So I did," said Lana Rideout in a 2014 interview "A few things that helped me was that in college, I had a journalism class I really enjoyed doing this for Howe especially because I had my kids there and all of their friends It just made me feel like I could help get the stories out right I had enough background to do that "

Throughout the years, the softspoken Lana Rideout implanted herself knee deep into the local business community She was instrumental in the Howe Chamber of Commerce, serving as president for a period of time She was also on the Friends of the Library board for many years and helped form the Howe Historical Society She also served on the volunteer fire department

Lana was even named the 1987 Norma J Wallace Citizen of the Year by the Howe Chamber of Commerce

Some people may not know that Lana was diagnosed with breast cancer in 1996 She is a survivor in so many ways. Dale encouraged her to write about her experiences throughout the early stages and that created so much encouragement from the citizens of Howe It ended up helping both her and the readers With the surgery and all of the chemo treatments, she missed one day at the office running The Enterprise and that was due to the surgery date.

Back in 2014, we asked Lana what her biggest story was that she wrote about She quickly responded with a fire that overtook the Enterprise office downtown

"I had worked all night at Anderson-Clayton," said Dale Rideout "I came in and went to bed and hadn't slept very long until Lana called me and wanted me to bring the camera because the buildings were on fire and she said she couldn't go in and get hers Now THAT is a newsperson "

If there was ever such a thing as a survivor's mentality Lana Rideout represented that as well as anyone in our community She took a tiny town newspaper and kept the train rolling for 38 years through one of the most difficult times to run a successful business in Howe, Texas She beat recessions, the downfall of print media, the uprising of online media, and even breast cancer She endured and survived, all with a smile on their face That is until last week when her body gave out

We at The Howe Enterprise will always admire the work she put in to cover our city and she'll always be documented forever as town editor
