Never give up. Play until the final horn sounds. That’s the mindset of Linfield athletic teams, which decades ago adopted the moniker “Wildcats” for their scrappy play and sense of determination.
That’s why you shouldn’t be surprised when a Linfield team comes from behind to pull out a win in the final moments. Remember 1984 when the Wildcats football team over came a 22-0 halftime
deficit to beat Northwestern of Iowa in the NAIA national championship game 33-22?
I once saw a Linfield basketball team roar back from eight points down with 32 seconds left in a game to win. And I’ve seen more than my share of successful comebacks in the late innings by the Linfield baseball and softball teams.
Watching a Linfield team compete is always worth the price of a admission.
