Detroit Kick Off Classic Set.

Written Sunday Feburary 22nd at 4:45 PM

The Detroit Kickoff Classic is set and it will involve two OAA Football Teams playing on two different days at Wayne State.

The Southfield Blue Jays fresh off from their State Semifinal appearance will take on Detroit Cass Tech on Saturday August 29th at 5 PM. The Blue Jays will feature running back Matt Falcon, whom is receiving college offers around the country. Southfield's defense will be tested as they deal with quarterback Rodney Hall, who has experience after starting last season in place of Jayru Campbell.

The Orion Dragons, who missed the playoffs for the first time since 2000 will play Chippewa Valley and their wide receiver/defensive back Sean Bunting at 7 PM on Thursday August 27th. Orion returns to the Classic for the first time since 2008 when they lost to Rockford 17-7. The Big Reds beat the Dragons 42-35 last season at Chippewa Valley.

Two interesting games, we'll see what happens.

I have highest function of autism (Asperger Syndrome.) I'm a huge Dallas Stars fan. I like to play and watch football, especially when the Dragons play on Friday nights. I am a 2006 alum and used to play football for the Dragons. I ran track, I ran the 100, 200, 400 meter dashes along with shot-put and discus. During my time in Orion I was a manager for Junior Varsity Boys Basketball team. I'm the volleyball, girls basketball, and football announcer for the team and do the book on the road for girls basketball. I do the clock for volleyball in the fall along with girls basketball in the winter and announce some boys basketball games as well. In the spring I coach shot-put at Scripps Middle School, in my fifth season coaching. I run the shot-put for high school meets. I played Special Olympics Basketball, I've won three gold medals for them. I host "Between Taorminas" which is on ONTV along with a podcast called "OAA Now". In other various things outside of Lake Orion, I love to jet ski over Saginaw Bay. Saginaw Bay is basically my life. I'm a trained weather spotter for the National Weather Service for Oakland and Huron counties.
