Howell has led the Wildcats to a C.I.F. title in his first year in Monrovia, and has been offered Minor League coaching jobs numerous times since his departure from Northridge. Howell is quoted saying "I'm not going to be leaving Monrovia any time soon! I love it here, I was raised here, this is my dream. If a Minor League team wants me, they're going to have to wait."
