Herb Cline
- Induction:
- 1991
Few student-athletes in Wake Forest's proud history have enjoyed the two-sport success that Herb Cline claimed as a Demon Deacon. On the football field and basketball court, Cline was a leader and record-setter.
As a receiver, Cline caught six touchdown passes during his senior season in 1941. His three touchdown receptions against George Washington that year has been matched by five other WFU players but has never been surpassed.
As a basketball performer, the 6-foot-4 Cline earned All-Southern Conference honors three consecutive seasons from 1940-42 and led the Deacs in scoring and rebounding in all three of those seasons. Cline's son Mark followed his father to Wake Forest and was a standout basketball player from 1984-87.
