DHS Ready For Humboldt Road Challenge

The Longhorn football team, 2-1, tomorrow evening (Sept. 21) will square off against the district's second-ranked team, Humboldt-Table Rock-Steinauer, 3-0. The 7 p.m. match-up will be the second road test for DHS, as Longhorn fans will need to travel about 90 minutes to Humboldt to root for the Orange and Black.

The Times is predicting a 14-8 Longhorn victory over the Humboldt-Table Rock-Steinauer squad. Last week, HTRS beat a mediocre, Class D-2 Falls City Sacred Heart team, 28-14.
** UPDATE: 9/21 -- 10:30 p.m **
The Longhorns lost a heartbreaker in Humboldt. Final score was Humboldt/Table Rock-Steinauer 42, Dorchester 38.

  2. The Horns are under great management. The new coaches have this program headed towards big success, judging from what I've seen.
