Hillsboro High brings back a 'Cat and other coaching updates


A Hillsboro High, Linfield graduate, and 3 time football letter winner Ken Ingram takes over the 5A Hilhi program. Ingram, 43, was a member of both the 1984 and 86 championship teams and played Center for the 'Cats. Most recently Ingram was the offensive coordinator at Aloha High School under former Linfield defensive coordinator, Chris Casey.

Speaking of coaches, the staff at Catdomealumni.com (Wildcat11) has been working hard to update the 'Cats in Coaching page of the mothership. We've been able to track down about 100 former Wildcat football players that are currently involved in coaching either at the pro, college, or high school ranks. However, I know there have to be more 'Cats out there that are coaching but I need your help in finding them. Please take a few minutes a take a look at the coaching page and if you are not on the list or know of a 'Cat that is missing please drop me a note at catdomealumni@yahoo.com.

Today former Linfield standout wide receiver Brad McKechnie (2005) dropped me a note to let me know that he's teaching health and calling plays for the JV's and working with the varsity WR at Springfield High in Eugene. Brad still has a jones for playing football and found his outlet in playing in the National Nineman Football League for the South Valley Vandals. I'm sure that Keck is cutting fools up like it was a fall Saturday at the 'Catdome.

It's been great to get updates from 'Cats like Travis Masters '08 (coaching at Oak Hill in California), Wendell Say '76 (Head Coach at Aiea High in Hawaii), Kress Drew '86 (assistant at Clackamas), Carl Haberberger '00 (JV OC, Varsity RBs at Wenatchee High School in Washington), and on and on.

Lets see how in-depth we can get this coaching page with 'Cats that are making their mark all over the country.
