An 11-1 season, Northwest Conference Championship, run to the NCAA Quarterfinals,
#5
National Ranking, 32 point average margin of victory, and National Top 10 statistical finishes by both the offense and defense led to an impressive awards season for the 'Cats!! 🏆🥇🏆
One of the most amazing things about the "Streak" is that Linfield has had only 5 different head coaches in 66 years. Each coach in the lineage was a Linfield graduate or served on the coaching staff prior to becoming head coach. So the winning culture has never started over!
With Thanksgiving around the corner, there's going to be plenty of hardware at the Smith family table, becoming the first trio to be named Northwest Conference award winners!!
