Clarkston adds another Star.

Written Monday July 31st at 12:40 AM

The rich keep getting richer for the defending State Champions.

Citing a very accurate source, Thomas Kitchener will be playing his Senior year at Clarkston.

Kitchener whom is a Michigan State commit played at Macomb Dakota last season. Two seasons ago on Kitchener’s now former home court, it was the Cougars that took out Clarkston in double overtime in the Regional Semifinal and Kitchener was a big part of that win. Macomb Dakota went to the State Semifinal that season. The Cougars were eliminated by the Wolves in the Regional Semifinal last season at Grand Blanc.

Kitchener is expected to replace Dylan Alderson at power forward. Wolves coach Dan Fife will be solid again. He moved to Clarkston a few weeks ago meaning he can play right away.

Kitchener will join a sick lineup at Clarkston with his future Michigan State teammate Foster Loyer along with Michigan bound Taylor Currie, CJ Robinson, Nick Wells, Spencer Newblatt, Tristen Mysen, and Chase Waslik.

All of them are Seniors.

That’s not to mention that the Wolves have a deep bench. Clarkston’s expectations have just gotten off the roof.

Thoughts:

This is a super-team to say the least. I’m nodding my head looking at this. I know the division will not be happy to hear this news about Kitchener. If Clarkston does not repeat as State Champions then this will be a failed season. The Wolves have added five transfers in the last five seasons (Tabin Throgmorton, Dylan Alderson, Loyer, Tristen Mysen, and now Kitchener.)

Stay tuned to OAA Now on this developing story.
