This was not going to be an easy matchup for Clarkston against the third ranked team in the State in Saginaw Heritage.
The Wolves could not handle the balance of the Hawks in a 70-25 blowout at Grand Blanc in the State Quarterfinals. It is the most points allowed and the least points scored that Clarkston has allowed all season.
Clarkston had a great season led by Kayla Luchenbach whom is heading to Oakland next season. Molly Nicholson, Maddie Beck, and Kianna Ayotte will be moving on as well along with others.
Luchenbach and Nicholson had 19 of the team's 25 points on the night.
Saginaw Heritage dominated from the opening tip over Clarkston, controlling tempo and using it's balance to control things. The Wolves really did not stand a chance.
Clarkston finished the season at 20-5 overall, capturing it's first regional since 2005 and getting their revenge on Waterford Kettering. Wolves coach Christine Rogers will have to replace a lot of talent especially Beck, Luchenbach, and Nicholson but there is a future in place in Kaitlyn Kahl, Heaten, and Piper Bosart.
The Wolves will be a different team next season for sure.

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.
