Around The 'CatdomeO'sphere

The autograph hounds were out after the 'Cats victory last weekend.

What a busy week at work for WC11 and it was a busy week Around The 'CatdomeO'sphere.  We're going to keep it pretty simple here but there are many links to keep you busy headed into the weekend.  A good amount of Linfield/CLU coverage, some video highlights of Whitworth, L&C, Willamette (well HSU highlights) and Pacific.  But if you're going to read one thing then read the bonus article at the end of the post entitled "I am Brook Collins".  It's a rather gripping and emotional piece in talking to the wife of fallen Occidental quarterback Andy Collins.
