While the name Houston 1836 refers to the year that our city of Houston was founded by brothers Augustus C. and John K. Allen, we also incorporated the star and silhouette of Gen. Sam Houston.
What we wanted to do was make sure our team represented all Houstonians. To us, the founding year symbolizes that we want to put deep roots in our city.
Considering all the uncertainties he faced with the team (last year), he did a remarkable job. He deserved his coach of the year (award), clearly.
