Celebrating 'Cats on the Hats'
Don't wait to celebrate Linfield's 100th football season in 2014.
The Wildcats are currently (this story posted 11/17/2013) in another milestone season.
"The venerable Linfield athletic logo, showing a scowling Wildcat wearing a jauntily cocked sailor's cap, first became a fixture in 1963 under the late coach Paul Durham," says Linfield Sports Info.
Thus, 2013 is the 50th season of "Cats on the Hats," meaning a half century of Wildcat logo decals on Linfield football player helmets.
