The Highlanders have named a new Girls Basketball coach to replace Shay Lewis whom left to become the new Director of Operations at Oakland in Jackie Steinacker.
Steinacker was Lewis assistant coach last season and was there when Lewis was there. She will hope to make Adams into a competitive team in the tough Red this season with Stoney Creek, Southfield Arts and Tech, North Farmington, and Clarkston. The Highlanders are in a tough district as well with Stoney Creek, Utica, Utica Eisenhower, and Rochester.
Steinacker will have some talent returning in Maggie Rogers, Hannah Simard, Noelle Dunbar, Makayla Smith, and Ryian Owusu back along with a newcomer in Lauren Van Pelt.
Adams opens up the season on December 9th when they will host Orion.
Thoughts:
I think this was a great move for the Highlanders this late in the process to go with Steinacker. Adams will be an interesting team to keep an eye on this season. This should be an interesting transition from Lewis to Steinacker.
We'll see what happens.

About Me
- Saginaw Bay
- 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.
