Written Saturday February 16th at 1:00 AM

Boys

Clarkston (15-2, Rank 1): Wolves rolling on all cylinders right now.

Adams (15-3, Rank 2): Highlanders getting ready for Clarkston as we speak.

Oxford (17-1, Rank 3): February 19th is judgment day.

Pontiac (17-1, Rank 4): Same with the Phoenix, February 19th is judgment day.

Ferndale (11-6, Rank 5): Eagles gearing up for a possible playoff run.

North Farmington (12-5, Rank 6): Raiders struggle on big courts which could be a bad sign come district time.

Southfield Arts and Tech (12-6, Rank 7): Cameron McEvans, enough said.

Troy (10-8, Rank 8): Brody Parker and Clay Sebastian, enough said.

Lake Orion (11-8, Rank 9): Dragons sent a statement against North Farmington on Friday.

Farmington (13-5, Rank 10): Falcons have been spotty lately which is not a good sign heading into districts.

Groves (11-7, Rank 11): Falcons didn’t look good against Rochester until the fourth quarter. That’s a concern especially with Birmingham Brother Rice gaining steam heading toward districts.

Oak Park (10-7, Rank 12): Last two games will test the Knights before going to Detroit for districts.

West Bloomfield (7-12, Rank 13): Welcome back Donovan Moore.

Stoney Creek (8-10, Rank 14): Cougars have been competitive all season which should help them toward districts.

Bloomfield Hills (7-11, Rank 15): Blackhawks have been very inconsistent lately which is a concern heading into districts.

Berkley (9-8, Rank 16): Bears have been very inconsistent which is a concern heading into districts.

Avondale (7-11, Rank 17): Yellow Jackets have been on the right and wrong side of a 50-49 score.

Seaholm (5-13, Rank 18): Maples gave Oxford all they could handle. They are a dangerous team heading into the postseason.

Royal Oak (6-10, Rank 19): Ravens snapped the seven game losing streak but can they get a winning streak going???

Troy Athens (3-15, Rank 20): Red Hawks have an interesting district looming.

Rochester (1-17, Rank 21): Falcons have lost 12 straight games which is rough to see.

Hazel Park (2-15, Rank 22): Vikings are gearing up for districts right now.

Harrison (6-12, Rank 23): Hawks have fallen apart since allowing 100 to Ferndale.

Royal Oak (15-1, Rank 2): Prayers sent to Jessica Adams for suffering a gruesome injury on Friday night.

West Bloomfield (14-1, Rank 3): Lakers struggled against Lake Orion on Thursday which could be a cause of concern.

Stoney Creek (9-6, Rank 6): This is the perfect song to describe the Cougars. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_T7hdIh-gtw

Bloomfield Hills (9-8, Rank 7): Blackhawks even though played two tough games should be fine heading into the postseason.

Seaholm (8-7, Rank 17): Maples are still a Jekyll and Hyde right now.

Ferndale (5-9, Rank 20): Eagles have a ton of games ahead of them.

Farmington (1-14, Rank 21): Falcons have lost 11 straight games. Wondering if they are in the right division right now???

About Me

My photo
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.
