The motto of UW-Whitewater football is powered by Tradition.Why the motto?
How about 32 conference champions, 77 All-Americans and 384 (some multi-year) All-Conference players that played for the purple and white (in recent years also back).
Coming up September 27th and 28th, four of those 32 WIAC//WSUC championship teams will be honored at the first UW-Whitewater Football Alumni Weekend Celebration.
The 1978 WSUC championship team will be celebrating its 35th anniversary. The 1988 team its 25th anniversary. This year marks the 15th anniversary of the 1998 championship team while the 2008 Warhawks will mark anniversary No. 5.
The event will include a Friday (9/27) afternoon at the Whitewater Country Club with a Friday evening social and banquet at Randy’s Family Restaurant. A Saturday morning (9/28) brunch followed by a pregame tailgate at Perkins Stadium prior to the Warhawks taking on Waldorf College in a 1 pm non-conference game.
Postcards will be mailed next week to former players from the four squads being honored. A formal brochure will be sent out in late July.
