71 Days 'till WCU Football Kickoff - Zach Hayes










It's now 71 days until the kickoff of Catamount football on Saturday, August 31, 2018, against the Mercer Bears, in E.J. Whitmire Stadium, Cullowhee, NC

To help pass those long summer days, and hopefully get the Catamount faithful more excited about the upcoming season, and knowledgeable of the team members, we'll continue the 100-day football countdown each day until kickoff day.

No player is currently assigned to #71 on the spring roster, so we will highlight someone that could wear #71:
