Looking forward to watching Cade Klubnik play this year. Go Tigers! 🧡 💜
Why Westlake number 1?
They lost a legendary coach and QB and some other good talent. Sure, they’ll replace them, but will they be as good? Probably not. Greathouse, Vasek and Shanahan return, but will they be enough. Dodge and Klubnik were standard bearers.
