OWEN WARHORSE FOOTBALL

I agree...28711. It's nice to see some more Owen folks on here. I think the Horses are gonna make some noise
 
Hopefully, Owen will get it turned around this year. I like Coach Padgett, and as an ACR fan I miss the days where the ACR & Owen game was the game of the week in the mountains.
 
Me too Packer....its definitely better for the Mountains when we are both good.
 
I miss Owen being good too. I'm glad to see them turning things around and hopefully back to success soon. Had some epic battles against the Warhorses back in the day against some Kenny Ford coached teams!

I remember when Owen first joined the WHC and basically dominated it for several yrs. some of the best rbs I’ve seen play in the WHC were at Owen.( Kemp, Gibbs, Gardner, many more but I’m old and blanking). Owen being back in top form is a welcome sight for any WHC fan. Rather try to beat a great Owen team than a down one. With Avery hopefully turning it around with their new coach, Owen back to form, Polk back on track, we can get back to the days when every conference game was a battle. Good luck horses.
 
Look, I like Heritage and Mitchell for that matter but Owen has done more than those 2 schools combined in there History. Heritage made it to state which Owen hasn't but beyond that not really anything else. We have been down the last 4 years, no doubt about it and we might lose to ACR, Heritage and Mitchell this year but I think we have a shot at beating all of them as well. It wont be what it's been being. I don't think East is a world beater and frankly I dont think we played very well in several aspects vs them but it was the first game too. When we get our entire team back to health and back from suspension it's going to get interesting. You dont have to believe Owen is anything this year, heck sleep on them, but dont cry if they beat your team. Calm down for goodness sakes. You sound like you are having a break down or are in fear of the run being over or something. The days of Heritage being the basement dweller are over so even if Owen is back, Heritage isnt going anywhere.
 
Also Padgett is growing as a coach and he doesnt suck. He followed a legend which in many ways is harder than going to a program like Joey inherited at Heritage. Heritage stunk and there were no expectations and face it he could only go up, but his record sucked for many years. Heck he just recently got over .500 in his career record. Joey is a good coach and nobody will dispute that now but early on I'm sure even the Heritage faithful would admit that they thought he sucked. Padgett just needed the kids to buy into his system and they now have. They are in good hands as far as concerned.
 
Owens coach is a joke lets
get real hear all this praise for Owen because they bear East Henderson.....sorry
Dudes until Owen beats Mitchell or Heritage give me a break ..I'm one of Owens biggest fans, but they will get destroyed when they come to Mt Heritage .hell we only give up 2. first downs to Brevard last Friday.. Owen better find them a coach because the one you have will neve beat Mountain Heritages or Mitchell so deal with it .we got some Damn tough boys and Owens the least of our worries ..where have the Owen fans been the last 4year's That's right they been watching Heritage and Mitchell make deep runs in the playoffs and Owen will suck..
this year and next and the next your coach sucks.. I've been quiet about the football situation at Owen for the last 4 years now all I here is Owens going to do to this and there going to beat this team and that team
The truth is there not going too do nothing but get the hell beat out of them when they come to Burnsville and if Owen plays Mitchell anywhere they will get stomped into the ground .I'm tired of you Owen fans crowing ..you might as well play the lottery thats about the odds you have competing against Heritage and Mitchell.so shut the. . F. .Up till you beat Heritage or Mitchell and you will get stomped against AC Reynolds so shut up till you have a team as of now you don't have nothing to brag about so shut up ...Owen had let the.liberials take over so we all now what that means ..so get more used to losing us country folks in Burnsville will not let the liberals run our football program into the ground...so deal with it..
Bro better be careful what you wish for. Like it or not owen is on the rise, the league is stronger polk will be better this season. Heritage is the favorite still someone can knock them off be careful, overlook them teams will pay for it this season.

Found out today you guys use to be called "Darkhorses" up until 1991....never knew this thought we were the only ones to ever bare that mascot name Hey were practically cousins LOL!!!!....good luck to the Warhorses this season


Black Mountain High School's mascot was the Dark Horses and Swannanoa high school's mascot was the Warriors, thus creating Owen High's mascot, the Warhorse. In 1991, a new school building was built on land donated by the Presbyterian Home for Children.

Per Google.
 
That's right about the home donating property but I believe 1955 was when we became Warhorses. From the names mentioned before Dark Horses and Warriors

Lmao! Mountain Heritage sucked before they started holding every male in the school system multiple times for athletics. It’s awesome when a middle schooler is driving their self to school! You can tell it has helped a ton! 0 state championships in Men’s sports at MH...
