The Maples will have an interim coach this season.
The team has named Chris Manchester as the team's interim coach replacing January Hlaski
Hlaski was named assistant principal replacing Verynda Stroughner whom took over as principal at Detroit Renaissance.
Manchester was formerly the Boys Basketball coach at Center Line but he teaches in the Birmingham School District at Birmingham Covington Middle School as a Physical Education and health teacher.
Manchester was 33-53 in his four seasons at Center Line including last season going 4-18. The Maples had a rough season going 3-18 last season.
Seaholm will have plenty of talent returning for Manchester which should help a lot. Also the Maples are one of the favorites in the Blue this season after dropping down from the White last season.
Thoughts.
This is an interesting hire but I have big concerns. Usually coaches who come from the Boys game struggle in the Girls game. The Girls game is a lot different than the Boys game. I'm curious to see how Manchester adjusts to the Girls game.
We shall see what happens.
Stay tuned to OAA Now for the latest on this developing story.

About Me

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.

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.
