This award was established by the association to honor the contributions of its members, Dr. Jack Howe, former Director of Forensics at California State University Long Beach, and Jim Wyman, former Director of Forensics at Moorpark College to the PSCFA. This award recognizes coaches in the PSCFA who exhibit the outstanding traits Dr. Howe possessed. During his long and distinguished career, Dr. Howe established the Cross Examination Debate Association (CEDA), was President of PSCFA and helped to define the association as we know it today. Jim Wyman served as President, Vice-President and Executive Secretary of PSCFA. The association decided to honor one coach in the PSCFA each year with the Wyman/Howe Award.
