Biggest Question facing Normal West this fall?
Can the Wildcats in some ways reload and make a run in the Big Twelve conference this fall? Normal West posted a 3-2 record this past spring and the Wildcats graduated a big senior class which included several key starters. The biggest spots to replace will be in the offensive skills with just Illinois State verbal commit 2022 WR Max Ziebarth and TE Alex Willey the lone experienced starters back this fall.
Impact Player for Normal West:
Senior TE/WR Max Ziebarth. Ziebarth, who recently gave in town Illinois State University his verbal commitment is a long term starter and impact player for the Wildcats. I would not be shocked to see Ziebarth get some playing time on both sides of the football this fall if needed.
Game to Watch this Fall? Week 9 vs Normal Community
Easily this is one of the top rivalry games in Central Illinois year in and year out as The Wildcats will host crosstown rivals Normal Community in a Week 9 showdown. I fully expect this game to have potential state playoff implications at minimum.
