Northwest Missouri State M-Club Hall of Fame
Dr. Al Cade was a part of the Bearcat football program that went from a winless campaign in 1978 to MIAA conference champions in 1979. During his senior season, Al was a key part of a defense that allowed the fewest total yards in a season in Bearcat history. He was a first team All-MIAA selection anchoring the defensive line for the Bearcats and ranks seventh all-time in career tackles with 345.
