'coach of year'
JACK ROWAN. who guided the Northeast gridders to SIX straight victories and third place in the Gulf States Conference II! his first year at the helm_ swept GSC Coach of the Year honors in a poll conducted hy the Louisiana Sporls Writers Association.
A veteran high school coach and assistant college grid mentor, Rowan made his start as a college head coach an impressive one. compiling an unbeaten record until the final three games of the season. His Indians were defeated in conference play only by co-champions Northwestern and Louisiana Tech_
The transplanted West Virginia Inountaineer came to Northeast late in July following the dealh of Devone Payne. long-time Northeast head coach, and built a team short in reserve strength into a winning squad, He was selected on 19 of 27 ballots to capture the "top coach" tag by a wide margin over )/orthwestem's Jack Clayton. Rowan had served as an assistant to Clayton with the Demons in 1957_
A.fter beginnin~ his career at j\:lullens High School III W'est Virginia in 1935, Rowan served a four-year hitch in the Navy during World War II. l;pon discharge he accepted the head coaching post at Byrd High School in Shreveport, where his teams won 68 game~ and lost only 41 over a ten-year period,
His 1949 club there won the state title and was runnerup in 1953.
After a temporary retirement from the coaching ranks in 1955, Rowan returned to footban two years later as backfield coach at Northwestern.
A real treasure for Ihe trophy case! Northeast brings tbe first. winning pigskin from Southeastern since the college became a senior institution.

LEW HARTZOG, personable Northeast mentor, hrought track back to the Indian scene with a hang in 1959, piloting the Redskins to first place in the Gulf States Conference and earning GSC Track Coach of the Year honors by an overwhelming margin.
In just two short years Hartzog, a veteran prep coach and a native Texan, revamped Northeast's almost-forgotten cinder team from a last place cluh in 1957 to a colorful championship machine in 1959_ The Indian thinclads swept virtually every GSC honor and placed high in competition against some of the largest universities in the country, gaining nationwide recognition.
Hartzog inherited in 1958 a Northeast team which had scored one-half point in the previous year's conference meet. With Coach Lew at the helm, the young Tribesmen came on strong that first season and finished third in the annual GSC championship meet.
