Wildcats' Season Comes to an End

The Linfield Wildcats couldn't hold off a late surge by Wisconsin-Whitewater and were denied entry into the National Championship game next Saturday in the Amos Alonzo Stagg Bowl.

It was a terrific run by the team. They started the season unranked in the Top 25 and not even a pick to win the Northwest Conference.

They ended up winning the Conference and beating 6 ranked teams this season and came out of the toughest bracket in the play-offs to get to today's game undefeated.

After getting down 10-0, they stormed back with 17 unanswered points and the lead heading into the final quarter. But a great team makes great plays when they need to and that's what Whitewater did. They scored the last 17 points and ended up winning, 27-17.

It was a memorable season for Linfield and we'll look forward to next season along with Brent.
