The history of great head coaches at Havre High School is long and storied. But when you are talking about the greatest and most influential coaches in the long tradition of Blue Pony athletics, you simply have to include the name of George Ferguson. Of course, Ferguson has made his greatest impact as the head coach of the Blue Pony tennis teams, but after a great legacy as a player, a sportswriter and soon-to-be Havre High head golf coach, the lasting impact of everything...
