The Crook County Cowboys are the American Football team at Crook County High School in Prineville, Oregon. The Cowboys compete in the 4A Special District 2 Football Conference in Central Oregon.[12] In 2021, Crook County hired Pard Smith as the new head football coach.[13][14] Crook County is noted by The Oregonian as one of the 25 most dominant teams in Oregon high school football history.[15]

First Football Game Played in Central Oregon

The first high school football game played in Central Oregon was played between Crook County and Bend High on Thanksgiving Day, 1910.[16] The football team from Bend traveled to Prineville by horse and carriage through Powell Butte. The final score is still disputed, but both newspapers in Prineville and Bend reported Crook County winning by at least two touchdowns.
