Only One Week Until League Play

Well we're pretty much through the non-league portion of the schedule for the league teams and I know I am looking foward to seeing some league matchups. We will have to wait until next Tuesday to see those games though.

There are some games scheduled this week and it will be interesting to see how some teams play after the layoff.

SMCC hosts Divine Child on Thursday. Even though basketball is a game of matchups it will be interesting to see how the Falcons play against the Catholics from Dearborn who lost by 23 to Huron while being held to only 31 points.

Jefferson plays at Woodhaven and should be able to find out a little bit about their improvement against the Warriors. Woodhaven has beaten GI and FR while losing to Airport.

Huron will be playing at the swimming pool in Allen Park. The Monarchs from Cabrini have some decent size and should be able to test the Chiefs with a host of athletes.

Riverview will play a always tough to beat Wayne Memorial team in Riverview. The Zebra's have beaten Taylor Truman and lost a 5 point game to Belleville. J.J Hatzel's team looks like they will have a say in who wins the league championship this year.

Grosse Ile has a tough game on Tuesday against Melvindale. The Cardinals are coached by former Red Devil standout Ryan Vranasich.

So how are thigs looking out there? Is this what we thought the preseason would look like? Let everyone know your thoughts.

  2. CC falcon fan here! Is Divine Child that bad or is Huron that good? I haven't seen Huron play yet and if I remember right SMCC got killed by Divine Child last year?!? I know Huron is pretty talented.

  3. Anonoymous you never answered before why did you think cc would be better. They have 1 starter back. Great records on the jv don't always add up because most schools bring up sophs and sometimes freshman. Lost to Adrian and Dundee 2 pretty good teams beat bedford and Ida. Match up that schedule with Airport or Huron.

  4. I felt the return of maybe the best player in the league and tradition along with a very strong JV team would make them very tough. Then add to that I feel they have the biggest home court advantage in the league. I thought they would be better. But the season is still young they have time to improve

  5. Divine Child was that good last year..Had two Kids ranked in the top 75 In Michigan.. They lost alot so they wont be as strong as last year. Huron is the team to beat this year CC and Riverview are a close Second and Third. Airport fourth and Flat Rock rounding out the top Five. If CC can find a way to play as a team they will be tough to beat.

  6. Just imagine Huron with CC's coach! Can you say unbeatable?

  7. Huron doesn't need CC's coach to be unbeatable.
