Western Illinois HS Football

[popeye]

Can anyone help me decipher the current state of Western Illinois HS football?

From the Ram Jam Webstie:

February 11, 2009--The Olympic Conference is expressing interest in the Mercer County Golden Eagles. Aledo superintendent Alan Boucher says the consolidated district has received a letter from the league. The future of the Olympic Conference is cloudy with talk that Farmington may be leaving and Sherrard has sent a letter to the Lincoln Trail Conference.

What is the latest with the 'West Prarie Trail" Conference? Is it now defunct?

Is the Lincoln Trail still in existence?

What would be your ideal League?

Anyone? Cubby?

Farmington is leaving the Oly in 2010. I think the WPT is in its last year. The Oly is trying to get teams in while the LTC should be fine. There are rumors of maybe a 12 school LTC. Too many scenarios at this point.

Mercer County High needs to go back to the Olympic. Declining enrollment is no longer a thing to use as an excuse to be in the WPT. Restore the order!!!
