Hello everybody, I did the best I can when looking at the top five teams for spring sports. I don't have tennis or water polo as of yet. Anyway here they are.

Baseball.

1. West Bloomfield: Lakers have been rolling lately.

2. Stoney Creek: Cougars cracked the State rankings at 15 this week.

3. North Farmington: Raiders got Ryan Shelby back from quarantine. Should be fresh and ready to go.

4. Lake Orion: Dragons are young and getting better each day.

T-5. Oxford: Wildcats non league has me worried right now.

T-5. Groves: Falcons are off to a strong start.


Softball.

1. Stoney Creek: Cougars haven't missed a beat.

2. Clarkston: Wolves have been an odd team to figure out lately.

3. Rochester: Falcons are an interesting team to watch but defense remains a concern.

4. Bloomfield Hills: Blackhawks seem to be finding their way a bit. 

5. Lake Orion: Dragons haven't been consistent which is a concern.

 

Boys Track.

1. Oak Park: Knights still have the athletes to compete at a high level.
