Streator football

[homerun10]

After finishing the year strong last year, how does this coming year look for streator football? How many returning starters? Who are the players to watch? Who will be the qb?

The 2014-15 school year will see Streator Township High School leave the Northern Illinois Big 12 Conference for the Interstate Eight Conference, and the school's nonconference schedule is spoken for through the 2015 football season.

Streator's leaving the NIB 12 will make the school of roughly 900 students its new conference's largest member, with the next largest being Sandwich at 724 students. This is opposed to Streator being one of the smaller schools in its current conference, as it has been since the collapse of the North Central Illinois Conference and the formation of the Northern Illinois Big 12 in 2010.

Once Streator joins the Interstate Eight, it will have two available nonconference weeks to schedule — Week 1 and Week 2. For the next two seasons, those dates are filled by downstate schools East Peoria and Canton. Both are within a couple hundred students of Streator in enrollment, and neither is known for having a very strong football tradition in recent years.

The new conference should make things more interesting...and competitive...for a program that has come up short on wins in recent years. We'll have to wait for summer camp to see who even decides to go out for the team...the commitment by our boys to do what it takes to be a winner in football is tepid at best.

The proof is in the pudding, huh?

Butterbean knows all about "pudding"!

Anyone want to bet he never received a Varsity Letter in High School or College?

Good one, little greek! As usual...never a cogent comment...just attempts to sound clever or nutty questions.

Try to keep up, wouldja'?

Butterbean,

Of course you never earned a Varsity Letter, in any sport. Oh, well.

Now, moving on, do you really believe a business or a professional would look at the "WIN-LOSS" record at SHS or WHS, or would they be more interested in the graduation rate?

Butterbean,

Wait,

This is too easy, did not receive a Varsity Letter because,

1. Your "wife" couldn't give you hers,

2. You couldn't read it anyway,

3. The school thought you could just "earn" it by "cutting and pasting",

4. Nobody wanted you on their team.

You're way to easy, girl.

Tell us again how the Football Team's performance, winning or losing records at SHS or WHS, will attract more successful individuals relocate to Streator?

Yep, I bet that's high on the list of Corporate decisions on where to relocate their business.

Dream on!

Oh wait, I think you were the one handing out the towels to those of us who were on the Football field, the basketball court, the swimming pool, the wrestling mat, after we competed.
