Chili Bowl, Volleyball and Local boys helping out Titans

If you aren't from near here or been around very long, Normal Illinois has it's very own football Bowl game.  It's held every season when Normal Community Ironmen play the Normal Community West Wildcats.  The game travels each year to the school that didn't have it the year before.  It's the one game that can really fill the stands.  Seems all the students and a good number of other followers of each team arrive to see who will take home the chili!

This weekend was also the Intercity Volleyball tournament held at Normal West.  Central Catholic and Normal West share the title this year.  It's 3/4's of a day of volleyball and usually in September.  Put it on you calendar for next year.

Football opened for the season in Tucci Stadium on Wilder Field for the Illinois Wesleyan Titans.  The trumped the Flying Dutchmen of Hope College.  Wilder Field is one of the oldest stadiums in the NCAA.  It's been upgraded thanks to Mr. Tucci and sports multi-colored turf.  It's always a good time, but this season locals Tate Musselman of Normal Community fame and T J Stinde of Lexington are making their mark.  Get out and have a look see!
