Pete’s Pigskin Preview: Loop Longhorns
2025: 5-5, missed playoffs
LOOP, Texas (KCBD) - The Loop Longhorns are heading into 2026 with head coach Rick Price, who is replacing the late Bobby Avery- the coach that originally hired to take over this upcoming season prior to his passing earlier this summer.
Coach Price has more than 30 years of coaching experience and is excited for the on-field challenges this year will bring.
“I’ve been really impressed with the kids there (at Loop),” he said. “They strike me as having a tremendous work ethic and they also strike me as being very coachable, so I think, with their coachability and work ethic, I think we’ll do some good.”
Last season, the Longhorns went 5-5. Key returners include: QB Bryan Wiebe, Israel Avalos, Landon Loewen, and Rowan Rodriguez- all seniors.
