Hey does anyone know what league the Illinois Jr. Frontenacs will be playing in? I'm thinking that it's gonna be low tier Jr. B or Jr. C.... anyone know?

Tier III Junior A, Playing out of Fairview, will be in the Great Lakes League and will have the same coach as the former Lightning out of Wentzville.

which one

Cory Haywood will be the coach.

Former Lightning ? Has this team closed shop ?

Been sold!

The Lightning Legacy is over.

Is this Great Lakes league new? What teams are in it?

**NEW JUNIOR LEAGUE TO BEGIN 2008-9 SEASON**

10:23,

That Great Lakes league is now defunct. It was operational during the 70's or 80's.

10:23 You are an Idiot pal

it's the great lakes division of the o.h.a.

who is going to coach eureka?

No one. Which means it will be no different than this past year. Anyone could have done better than Haywood. He's brutal.

he did such a great job with the lightning though.

I'm hoping you're being sarcastic. Haywood ran that program right into the ground. They had some decent younger players but Haywood did nothing to help them out. Plus, while failing miserably with the Lighting, I've heard he more or less forgot his team at Eureka even existed.

This team is the real deal they are flying to there games now.
