Warhawks needed a fourth quarter rally to beat Linfield 27-17 in the '09 NCAA III semifinal


UW-Whitewater and Linfield College have only met twice on the football field.

In 2005 the Warhawks travelled to McMinnville, Oregon and  knocked off the defending NCAA III national champions and prohibitive favorites to repeat in '05 in a pulsating 44-41 final.

In 2009, Linfield travelled to Whitewater just one game away from getting back to the Amos Alonzo Stagg Bowl. The Warhawks, who had trailed much of the game, put on a furious 4th quarter rally to punch its ticket to Salem with a 27-17 win over the Wildcats.

The atmosphere was electric during that fourth quarter rally which is evident by watching UWW TV's highlight video. (click on link to view)
