Last year Northwood enjoyed their best football season in school history. The Falcons went 10-3, but this year they’re looking to go all the way.

When asked if this year’s team had a motto or saying, junior Quarterback Luke Bogan said, “All gas, no brakes.”

Then other seemed to join in. The Falcons are attacking the 2018 with ‘all gas, ‘no brakes.’

Northwood looks ready for the 2018 season. The Falcons open the year again North Caddo. Last year the Falcons inched by the Rebels of North Caddo 77-7. This year they seem ready again. The season kicks off August 31.
