BAY CITY Seven went in,


and seven moved on.
Every Gaylord High School
wrestler who entered the
Division II Individual
Regional Tournament last
week at Western High School
placed in the top four in his
respective weight class, earn-
ing a trip to the state finals.
Three Blue Devils placed
second, two were third, and
two more were fourth to
punch their tickets to the
finals, which begin Thursday,
Feb. 27, at The Palace of
Auburn Hills.
None of the six Petoskey
wrestlers who partook in the
regional advanced.
Gaylords Dominic LaJoie
(103 pounds), Jonathan
Martin (112) and Tristan
Gregory (189) each placed
second in the regional.
LaJoie lost to Dalton
Roberts of Fowlerville, 3-2, in
the 103-pound final. It was
the first loss of the season for
LaJoie, a freshman who is 46-
1 and ranked fourth in
Division II at 103 by
Michigan Grappler. Roberts,
a senior, is 43-5 and ranked
third.
LaJoie opened with a 17-5
major decision win over
eighth-ranked Emilio
Sanchez of St. Johns, then
beat seventh-ranked Drew
Hutchinson of Clio on a 13-6
major in the semifinals.
Martin, a sophomore who
is ranked ninth at 112, lost by
injury default to unbeaten
Ian Parker of St. Johns in
Saturdays final. Martin is 43-
5. Parker, also a sophomore,
is 43-0 and ranked second.
Martin pinned
Fowlervilles Kyle Briggs in 1
minute, 12 seconds to open
the regional, then pinned
teammate Trenton Lashuay
in 2:52 in the semifinals.
Lashuay, a freshman who
is ranked 10th, rebounded to
place third, pinning Noah
Schoenherr of Bay City
Western in 4:37 in the third-
place match.
Lashuay, who is 45-5,
opened with a 9-8 win over
Tyler Albarez of DeWitt
before losing to Martin. He
reached the consolation final
with an 18-7 major victory
over Sam Woods of Bay City
John Glenn.
Gregory pinned Fentons
Justin Hill in 2:25 in his open-
ing match, then pinned Cody
Okes of Bay City Western in
4:24 in the semifinals. He fell
to top-ranked and unbeaten
Angus Arthur of St. Johns, 14-
10, in the final.
Gregory, a junior who will
make his second consecutive
trip to the state final, is
ranked third and takes a 45-2
mark to the Palace. Arthur is
40-0 and won the state title at
171 last season.
Gaylords Shane Foster,
also wrestling at 189, placed
third. He pinned Okes in 3:19
in the third-place match.
Foster, who is 40-6 and
ranked fourth, opened the
tournament with a 21-7
major decision over Cody
Bryant of DeWitt, then was
pinned by Arthur, the even-
tual champion, in 3:25. He
earned a spot in the third-
place match with a 2-1 victo-
ry over Caleb Heddy of
Goodrich.
Gaylords Seth Lashuay
(125) and Jeff Heinz (135)
each placed fourth in their
respective weight classes.
Both finished 2-2 on the day.
Seth Lashuay, a senior who
is 39-8 and will return to the
finals for the second straight
year, opened with an 8-2 win
over Kyle Roberts of
Fowlerville, then dropped a
7-2 decision to David Leija of
Lansing Waverly. He
rebounded with a 13-8 win
over Austin Makins of
Fowlerville, then fell, 9-3, in
the third-place match to
Fowlervilles Roberts.
Heinz, a junior who is 37-
14, downed Chase Smith of
Clio in his opening match,
then was pinned in 3:49 by
fourth-ranked Thomas
Schoenherr of Bay City
Western.
Heinz came back to take a
3-1 win over Jacob Wibirt of
Bay City Western, and was
pinned in 1:34 by ninth-
ranked Austin Melton of
DeWitt in the third-place
match.
For Petoskey, Nick Strobel
(140), Cam Plath (152),
Trevor Giallombardo (103)
and Gage Paul (119) each fin-
ished 1-2 on the day, while
Trevor Denoyer (189) and
Scott Kibbe (119) each went
0-2.
Strobel was pinned by
Chris Root of Bath in 3:33 in
his opening bout, then
scored an 8-3 win over Nic
Bignell of Owosso, and was
eliminated by Christian
Schoenerr of Bay City
Western on a 9-2 decision.
Strobel finished 37-7.
Schoenerr was a state run-
ner-up last season.
Nick really had it tough in
the tournament, Petoskey
coach Nate Gross said. After
he lost that first match, we all
knew it would be really diffi-
cult to make it through. He
still performed well, even in
his last defeat. He never quit
and simply wrestled to the
best of his abilities.
Paul dropped an 18-2 tech-
nical fall to Lucas McFarland
of St. Johns in his opening
match, then defeated Levi
Stoll of West Branch Ogemaw
Heights, 9-6. Paul was elimi-
nated on a pin in 4:13 by
Coby Moore of Bay City
Western. Paul finished 32-10.
Gage wrestled well, Gross
said. He is a freshman and
hopefully he will learn from
this and it can help propel
him into the off-season.
Plath opened with a pin in
2:39 of Alan Drake of Haslett,
then lost on a 17-2 technical
fall to Jake Hopkins of
Greenville, and was eliminat-
ed on an 8-4 decision by
Michael James of Sault Ste.
Marie. Plath finished 38-9.
Cam really had a great
season, Gross said.
Unfortunately, he wrestled
harder than his body could
handle at times. In the end,
the injuries really added up
and hampered him. One of
the great things about coach-
ing Cam is that you know
that he will give every bit of
his energy to win a match.
Giallombardo opened with
a 10-6 win over Shukurani
Nyabenda of Lansing
Eastern, then lost on a 16-1
technical fall to Fowlervilles
Dalton Roberts.
Giallombardo was eliminat-
ed on a 10-5 decision by
Sanchez of St. Johns. He fin-
ished 33-7.
Trevor had a great sea-
son, Gross said. It was
unfortunate to see him lose
out at the regional. His
weight class was stacked, but
I still thought he would make
it through.
Kibbe opened with a 20-2
technical fall loss to Jacob
Chapman of Flint Kearsley,
and was eliminated by
Fowlervilles Dean Roberts on
a 4-0 decision.
Denoyer was pinned by St.
Johns Arthur in 5:04 in his
opening bout, then lost by
disqualification to Bryant of
DeWitt. Denoyer finished 28-
12.

Seven Blue Devils headed to state
wrestling finals
CHARLEVOIX The
Grayling girls varsity basket-
ball team couldnt overcome
a sluggish first half in a 58-43
loss to Lake Michigan
Conference foe Charlevoix
on Friday, Feb. 14.
Each team scored 28
points in the second half.
But, Charlevoix had the
advantage after leading at
halftime, 30-15.
Grayling (5-13 overall, 1-11
conference) scored just 7
points in the first quarter and
then 8 points in the second
period.
Samantha Denno was
Graylings lone scorer in dou-
ble figures with 10 points and
5 rebounds. But, Brittany
Nielson was just shy of a dou-
ble-double on the night with
9 points, 9 rebounds, 2 assists
and 2 steals.
Other contributors for
Grayling included: Eric
Umlor with 7 points, 4
rebounds and 1 steal; Rachel
Money with 6 points, 1
rebound, 2 assists and 5
steals; Makayla Cragg with 4
points, 5 rebounds and 4
steals; Cierra Prosser with 3
points, 6 rebounds and 1
steal; Courtney Hatfield with
2 points, 1 rebound and 3
assists; and Leslie Reilly with
2 points.
Boyne City 69
Grayling 61
Several Lady Vikings post-
ed solid performances
against visiting Boyne City on
Friday, Feb. 14. But, the com-
bination wasnt enough as
Grayling suffered a 69-61
conference loss.
Prosser hit for a team-high
26 points, 3 rebounds, 6
assists and 4 steals against
the Ramblers, while Denno
had yet another double-dou-
ble with 22 points, 13
rebounds, 2 assists, 4 steals
and 1 blocked shot.
And, Nielson had a great
night on the boards in grab-
bing 13 rebounds, as well as
tallying 3 points, 3 steals and
1 blocked shot.
Boyne City took control
early, building a 16-10 lead in
the first quarter. Grayling
equaled the Ramblers in the
second quarter, with each
team putting 16 points on the
board and the halftime score
standing at 32-26.
But, Boyne City again won
the opening of the second
half by outscoring the Lady
Vikes, 24-17, in the third
quarter.
Also contributing for
Grayling were: Umlor with 4
points, 3 rebounds and 3
steals; Cragg with 3 points, 2
rebounds, 4 steals and 1
blocked shot; Money with 3
points, 2 rebounds, 1 assist
and 3 steals; and Hatfield
with 2 rebounds, 1 assist and
2 steals.

ROGERS CITY Two
wrestlers representing the
Onaway program earned
individual regional titles on
Saturday in the Div. 4 tourna-
ment at Rogers City.
Junior Joe Train Wreck
Traynham at 112 pounds and
the C.W. Slammer, senior
Casey Watson, at 189 pounds
were victorious in their
respective weight divisions
and advance to the state
meet at The Palace of Auburn
Hills as No. 1 seeds.
Onaway sends three
wrestlers in all to state. Mio
also sends three and
Mancelona sends two.
Joining Traynham and
Watson at the state meet will
be scappy sophomore team-
mate Ice Man Isaac Nave at
119 pounds as a No. 2 seed.
Moving on for Mio are
sophomore Scott Blamer
(152) as a No. 4 seed, senior
Colton McGregor (215) as a
No. 3 seed, and junior Patrick
Stephens (103) as a No.3
seed.
Advancing for Mancelona
are senior Keegan
Richardson (285) as a No. 4
seed and Man Plow
Michael Meadows (130), a
senior, as a No. 2 seed.
Traynham was a terror at
112 for the Cardinals, domi-
nating the opposition. He
earned major decisions over
Ryan Groendyke of Manton
and Troy Moore of Pine River
on the way to the finals,
where he faced highly
regarded Jimmy Spencer of
Rudyard and secured a 6-1
decision.
Traynham, who pushed his
personal log to 39-4,
advances to The Palace as a
No. 1 seed. The wrestling
finals will be held at The
Palace from Thursday, Feb.
27, through Saturday, March
1.
Watson was equally domi-
nant on his way to the
regional title at 189. The
strong-armed senior put the
slam down on Reily Somers
of Manton in 1:14, earned a
major decision over Freddy
Vanderstelt of Hesperia in
the semifinals and then took
down Pine Rivers Tyler
McMurry in 1:28.
Watson (24-4) also
advances as a No. 1 seed to
the state tournament.
The Ice Man of Onaway,
sophomore Isaac Nave,
reached the regional finals
with decision wins over
Landon Elliott of Forest Area
and Kyle Leonard of
Whittemore-Prescott before
losing a decision to rugged
Zach Schaub of Traverse City
St. Francis.
Nave (17-6) goes into the
state meet as a No. 2 seed at
119 and will face a No. 3 seed
from another region in the
opening round.
FOR MIO, the unflappable
Blamer (35-16) advances as a
No. 4 seed at 152 and will face
a No. 1 seed in the state tour-
nament. Blamer battled Jake
Novotny of Charlevoix in the
consolation finals with third
place riding on the outcome
and lost a very tight 6-4 deci-
sion.
McGregor (26-15)
employed the Mac Attack to
overtake Mantons rugged
Noah Thompson in the sec-
ond period of the consola-
tion finals at 215.
Stephens (41-5) battled
back after losing to No. 1 seed
and eventual 103-pound
champ Davian Gowen of
Hesperia to pin Nick Park of
Pine River in 34 seconds and
then whip highly regarded
Zac Decremer of Norway via
a second-period pin in the
consolation finals.
FOR MANCELONA, Man
Plow Meadows forged a
path to the 130-pound finals
with convincing victories
over Vincente Carlson of
Ishpeming and Matt Mawby
of St. Francis to face rival
Matthew Elliott of Forest
Area in the finals. It was a
rematch of the district finals
where Meadows put the plow
on Elliott in the third period
to give Elliott his first loss of
the season. This time around,
Elliott reversed the defeat.
Meadows (45-6) advances
to The Palace as a No. 2 seed.
Keegan Richardson put the
patented Kee-Lock move
on two opponents to take
them both out in a hurry on
his way to a berth in the con-
solation finals. Keegan (22-7)
dropped a close decision to
Chase Morrison of Pine River
in the battle for third place
and advances to the state
meet as a No. 4 seed for the
Ironmen.
Traynham at 112 and Watson at 189 take D-4
titles, Nave is runner-up at 112; Mio sends
three to state meet, Mancy sends two

JOHANNESBURG The
young, steadily improving
Johannesburg-Lewiston boys
of coach Troy Huff pushed
their record above the .500
mark on Monday with an
impressive 62-48 victory over
scrappy cross-county rival St.
Mary.
The Cardinals, whose best
days are clearly in front of
them, improved to 8-7 overall
and 7-6 in the Ski Valley with
the big win. The Snowbirds of
coach Ken Blust, who have
battled for 32 minutes in
every game this season and
played everyone tough,
slipped to 6-9 overall and 4-8
in the SVC.
There was blizzard condi-
tions outside for Mondays
game but inside the J-L gym
it was a hot truck for the run-
ning Cardinals, who generat-
ed a lot of pressure with their
up-tempo, high-octane
assault on the Snowbird iron.
Sophomore Lights Out
Logan Huff was in sync from
the floor and the charity
stripe, accounting for a
team-high 17 points with a
surgically-sharp 7-for-8 from
the line. He wasnt the only
Huff who had a hot hand on
this night, though. Bruising
Brandon Huff turned in a
typical blue-collar effort
inside, collecting 14 points
and 14 boards for a strong
double-double.
Freshman fireman Spencer
White sprayed 10 points
through the nets to join
Logan and Brandon in dou-
ble figures.
J-L did an outstanding job
defensively against one of the
more dangerous players in
the league this season, St.
Marys rangy senior wing
Charles Strehl. The Cardinals
surround-sound defensive
effort prevented Strehl from
penetrating through the
paint to score points in close
or get to the free throw line
and that proved a factor in
the outcome. Strehl still
scored a team-high 15 points
but he was held well below
his scoring average.
Seniors Nick Harringon
and Brendon Nowicki each
tallied eight from the back-
court for the Snowbirds.
ON FRIDAY, Feb. 14, the
Cardinals earned one of their
most impressive and most
gratifying wins of the season,
outscoring host Forest Area
76-59 to reverse an earlier
overtime loss to the Warriors
in Gaylord.
Sophomore forward Nate
Fox, one of several talented
underclassmen on the J-L
roster, was hotter than Texas
chili in the contest, firing in
26 points to go with seven
boards.
Logan Huff was locked in
like radar from the floor with
his shots and with his passes
on his way to a rare triple-
double. Logan launched a
team-high 17 points through
the iron to go with 11 assists
and 10 rebounds. Brandon
Huff blistered the nets for 18
points with 10 boards for
another bruising double-
double.
Freshman Spencer White
waxed the twine for seven
points and showed up strong
inside as well, securing seven
rebounds. Senior Coalton
Huff was a force defensively
in the big win, covering
Forest Areas ever-dangerous
senior Justin Burke like snow
on an evergreen.

league victories over Central
Lake and Pellston in the Boys
Hoops report in this issue.
J-L (8-7, 7-6) played at
Pellston on Tuesday, Feb. 18,

Snowbirds play at the court
of league front-runner
Bellaire on Tuesday, Feb. 25.

GAYLORD The Gaylord
boys of coach Tim ORourke
have not won many games
this season but theyve con-
tinued to play hard. The good
news is that the underclass-
men are gaining valuable
varsity experience and theres
an infusion of talent coming
up the JV and freshmen ranks
over the next few years.
On Tuesday, Feb. 11, the
Blue Devils lost at home to a
pretty good Sault Ste. Marie
squad, 56-32, on Senior
Night. The team recognized
the three hardworking sen-
iors on the roster: Zach
Pasternak, Ty Coonrod and
Leland Huey.
On Wednesday, Feb. 12, the
very next day, they traveled
to Traverse City Central and
gave the host Trojans every-
thing they wanted before los-
ing a heartbreaker in double
overtime, 47-45. Gaylord was
looking for its first Big North
win of the season and came
achingly close.
On Friday, Feb. 14, the
busy Blue Devils played host
to league foe Traverse City
West and dropped a 72-48
decision to the talented
Titans.
IN THE game with the
Sault, the visiting Blue Devils
from above the bridge
rebounded from an early
deficit to take an 11-7 lead
after one quarter and then
built on the lead after that.
Zach Pasternak and Josh
DeGraw each produced six
points to pace Gaylord.
Hard-driving junior guard
Marcus ORourke rocked the
iron for five points, including
a trey, and Coonrod and jun-
ior Blayne Baker each tallied
four.
The Gaylord varsity strug-
gled to put points on the
board against the Sault but
the high-octane JV team
assaulted the enemy iron en
route to a thrilling 78-68 vic-
tory.
The prolific 1-2 punch of
Jakovan Prior-McCovery and
Jack Korte kept twisting the
twine for the young Blue
Devils and scored nearly 60
points between them. Jak-
Mac churned out 29 points
and J-Ko put 28 on the board.
Those two will certainly be a
welcome addition to the var-
sity next year.
They werent alone,
though. Jacob King connect-
ed for 11 to help the cause
and coach Jason Wenzel also
credited young point guard
Jacob Freeman with fine
floor generalship and ball
handling once again.
ON WEDNESDAY, Feb. 12,
at T.C. Central, it was Collin
Watters pouring in 20 points
to pace the visiting Blue
Devils in the intense double-
overtime battle.
The host Trojans (5-11, 5-
5) hit key baskets or free
throws at crucial times. First,
it was Mitch Wynkop making
a final-second bucket at the
end of regulation to force
overtime. Then it was Max
Knoblock making two free
throws in the final seconds of
the first overtime to force a
second overtime. Then it was
Nate Schusler hitting both
free throws in the final sec-
onds of the second overtime
to give Central the come-
from-behind victory.
It was an agonizing loss for
the Blue Devils, who fell to 0-
8 in the Big North.
The Gaylord JV prevailed,
however, beating the Trojans
58-39 as Korte canned 31 and
Freeman found the range for
14. Coach Wenzel also lauded
the defensive effort of Brandt
Kierczynski.
ON FRIDAY, Feb. 14, the
Blue Devils were paced by
Watters again, who showered
the nets with 16 points, and
junior Steven Fitzek, who
fired in 13. Baker bounced
seven through the iron and
the hard-driving ORourke
rang up six points with his
usual frenetic effort.
Stephen Sheppard struck
for 18 to lead the Titans, who
improved to 6-9 and 5-3.
Gaylord lost the JV contest
by a 70-52 margin. Korte
canned 26 to lead the young
Blue Devils and Jac-Mac
drained the nets for 18. Point
guard Freeman rounded out
the scoring with eight points.
Gaylord (3-12, 0-9) played
at Cheboygan on Tuesday,
Feb. 18, in a non-league clash
and at T.C. West on

GAYLORD The St. Mary
girls of coach Dan Smith
pushed their record to 16-1
on Tuesday, Feb. 11, and 13-0
in the Ski Valley with a 55-15
triumph over visiting
Mancelona but the third-
ranked Snowbirds suffered
their first league loss on
Thursday, Feb. 13, at the
court of talented Bellaire by a
38-31 margin.
Bellaire, which is also
state-ranked, improved to
16-2 and 12-1 in the Ski Valley
while the Snowbirds slipped
to 16-2 and 13-1. Unless
there is an upset of unusual
proportions between now
and the end of the regular
season, St. Mary and Bellaire
will end up sharing the Ski
Valley championship of 2014.
It would be the second
year in a row the Snowbirds
shared the league title. Last
year, they were co-champs
with Johannesburg-
Lewiston.
ON TUESDAY, Feb. 11, in
the victory over game-but-
outmanned Mancelona, it
was savvy senior guard Kari
Borowiak leading the way,
burning the nets for 21
points. Kari is finishing up a
stellar four-year hardwood
career for the Snowbirds and
will be graduating as one of
the schools most prolific
scorers.
Kari is far from a one-
dimensional, player, howev-
er. She also covered the floor
defensively like syrup on
sweet cakes, recording a
whopping 12 steals for a dou-
ble-double.
Long-armed sophomore
Bekah Myler bounced 12
points through the rim and
Gabby Schultz struck for
nine. Hardworking senior
Caylee Lawnichak also
showed up strong in her final
home game, launching seven
through the iron.
For Mancelona girls coach
Ben Tarbutton, it was a
return to the gym he starred
in as a St. Mary athlete not
that many years ago.
Tarbuttons girls are on a
steep learning curve but the
young Lady Ironmen are still
putting together the best sea-
son theyve had in a long
time. They came into the
game with five wins after
having gone winless the pre-
vious two seasons.
A pair of fighting freshmen,
center Electric Eileene
Naniseni and wing Jill
Smigielski, helped lead the
visitors in scoring along with
Emily Nixon, Ashley Joseph
and Tyra Oetting.
ON THURSDAY, Feb. 13, in
the much-anticipated show-
down at Bellaire, the Eagles
prevailed 38-31 in a game
that featured some serious
defensive work at both ends.
Bellaire did an outstanding
job of preventing St. Mary
from getting open looks at
the basket, especially in the
second half.
With the Eagles swarming
all over Borowiak like hungry
pit bulls with the scent of
dinner in their nostrils, it was
hardworking freshman
Gabby Schultz stepping up
and turning in a fine per-
formance, hitting for a team-
high 11 points. Borowiak still
blistered the nets for 10
points with a gritty effort and
Myler, who also drew enemy
jerseys like magnets through-
out, scored eight.
Leighton Koepke tallied 15
for Bellaire.
The two state-ranked
teams could meet again in
the Class D district finals on
Friday, Feb. 28, at Central
Lake with even more at stake
than the league title. They
would be vying for a district
title and the opportunity to
keep the season alive and
move on to the regional tour-
nament.
St. Mary (16-2, 13-1)
played at Forest Area on
Tuesday, Feb. 18. On
Thursday, Feb. 20, the
Snowbirds end the regular
season with a game at Inland
Lakes.

JOHANNESBURG The
Johannesburg-Lewiston girls
of coach Heather Huff enter-
tained Ski Valley foe Central
Lake for Snowcoming on
Thursday, Feb. 13, and pre-
vailed by a 68-45 margin.
The Cardinals improved to
13-4 overall and 9-4 in the Ski
Valley with three league
games jammed into the final
four days of the regular sea-
son because of all the make-
up dates caused by the snow
and severe cold this winter.
The meteorologists could
have accurately called for
rain on the Cardinals court
from sophomore sharp-
shooter Maddie Showerman
in Thursdays game as she
poured in a game-high 13
points to lead a balanced
scoring ledger. Maddie also
added her usual muscle
down low, pulling in seven
rebounds.
Fellow sophomore Kelsey
Cherwinski, another of the
promising underclassmen
coming through Huffs
perennially tough program,
churned out 10 points and
covered the floor like wall-to-
wall carpeting, notching an
incredible eight steals as she
had a near double-double.
Senior forward Brittany
Cherwinski blistered the nets
for 15 points to lead all scor-
ers and Abbie May cast a long
shadow inside, scoring eight
while exchanging bruises
under the boards.
ON TUESDAY, Feb. 11, the
Cardinals outscored game-
but-outmanned Inland Lakes
59-17. Brittany Cherwinski
led the way once more, burn-
ing the twine for 18 points.
Long-armed Emily Aisthorpe
patrolled the paint with
power, putting 10 on the
board, and Showerman
shook the nets for eight while
securing nine rebounds.
Ashley May hauled in nine
boards as well.
J-L (13-4, 9-4) played at
Pellston on Tuesday, Feb. 18.

ROGERS CITY The Mio
girls faced a stiff challenge on
Monday at the court of
Rogers City in non-league
action. The Hurons (13-5)
broke open a very close game
in the third quarter and final-
ly won by a 59-40 count.
The Thunderbolts rallied
in the final minutes of the
first half to trim the Rogers
City lead to just two points,
27-25, at the intermission.
Senior Jalen DeFlorio, in
the midst of a solid season
for the Thunderbolts, tallied
18 to lead the visitors, includ-
ing a surgically crisp 8-for-10
from the stripe. Katy Lefler
landed six through the iron.
Courtney Streich struck for
20 to pace the Hurons and
Logan Fleming fired in 17.

Forest Area 36
PELLSTON The Pellston
girls, fueled by the furiously
hot hand of Hanah Carter,
earned a 62-36 victory over
visiting Ski Valley foe Forest
Area on Monday in a makeup
game.
Hanah hit for a game-high
23 points and was a surgical-
ly sharp 11-of-13 from the
charity stripe. She was joined
in double digits by team-
mates Ainsley MacLean, who
launched 15 through the
iron, and Kelly Lewis, who
connected for 13.
Onna Hulwick tallied 12
points and Ally Schuster 10
for the Warriors.
Pellston played host to
Johannesburg-Lewiston on
Tuesday, Feb. 18. On

Onaway 57
Pellston 29
ONAWAY The Onaway
girls of coach Marty Mix
improved to 10-8 overall and
8-7 in the Ski Valley with a 57-
29 victory at home over hard-
worki ng-but-outmanned
Pellston on Thursday, Feb.
13.
The Cardinals led 10-5, 22-
11 and 43-22 at the quarter
breaks.
Lexi Szymoniak, a double-
double machine this year,
turned in another typically
effective performance,
drilling home 15 points and
drawing down 11 rebounds.
It was the 14th double-dou-
ble for Lexi in 18 games, a
remarkable achihevement.
Erika Price was right on
target for 11 points and
Devin Bristley and Jade Galer
helped the Cardinal cause as
well, generating nine and
eight points, respectively.
The Cardinals (10-8, 8-7)
traveled to Rogers City on
Tuesday.
Mackinaw City 65
Alba 14
MACKINAW CITY The
Mackinaw City girls of coach
Adam Stefanski had too
much firepower for game-
but-outmanned Alba on the
home floor on Thursday, Feb.
13, securing a 65-14 victory
in Northern Lakes
Conference play.
The surging Comets
pushed their record to 14-5
overall and finished with a
12-2 record in league play.
Their only two league losses
came at the hands of Boyne
Falls, giving the Loggers the
league title outright this year.
Mack City was seeking its
third straight NLC champi-
onship.
Junior Lauren Bell had a
harmonious night shooting,
as usual, ringing in with 22
points to pace the Comets.
Bell was a beast down low as
well, bringing down 10
rebounds for a double-dou-
ble.
Junior Katherine Watchorn
canned 17 points with seven
boards and senior Brooke
Yoder bounced eight through
the iron. Senior Blaine Yoder
had a big night spreading the
wealth around, issuing a
whopping nine assists.

closed out the regular season
at home against non-league
foe DeTour on Tuesday, Feb.

INDIAN RIVER The
Mancelona boys varsity bas-
ketball jumped ahead early
and then held on to beat
host Inland Lakes, 69-55, on
Monday, Feb. 17.
The Ironmen didnt waste
time, quickly building a 21-8
lead in the opening stanza.
But, Inland Lakes fought
back and trimmed the lead
to just seven points, 36-29,
at halftime.
They hung around, said
Mancelona head coach Rick
Duerksen. I think theyre an
improved team.
The Ironmen, however,
werent about to relinquish
the lead and outgunned the
host team, 33-25, in the sec-
ond half.
Brandon Dingman con-
tinued to power Mancelona,
hitting for 28 points, 5
rebounds, 3 steals and 3
assists in the victory.
Justin Spires chipped in a
season-high 18 points and
grab a team-best 8
rebounds, as well as tallying
2 assists and 1 steal.
He had a nice game,
Duerksen said of Spires.
Most of his points came in
the paint. He had some nice
moves.
Duerksen especially
praised Spires efforts on the
boards, where 4 of his 8
rebounds were at the offen-
sive end.
Those were critical, the
coach added.
Other contributors for
Mancelona included: Logan
Borst with 8 points and 2
assists; Jake Winstead 7
points, 5 assists and 1 steal;
and Griffin Borst with 6
points, 7 rebounds, 3 assists
and 3 steals.
The win against Onaway
put the Ironmen in sole pos-
session of second place, two
games behind Bellaire.
As the regular season
winds down, Mancelona sits
in second place in the Ski
Valley Conference standings
behind Bellaire. The two
league leaders will again
clash Feb. 25.
Before that, however, the
Ironmen (12-3 overall, 10-2
conference) is first slated to
travel to Gaylord St. Mary on
Wednesday, Feb. 19, and
then host Forest Area in
their final regular-season
home game Friday, Feb. 21.
Mancelona 64
Central Lake 52
As usual, the Ironmen
needed a few minutes to
warm up before surging to a
62-54 win over host Central
Lake on Friday, Feb. 14.
Mancelona found itself
down early in the first quar-
ter in the SVC matchup. But,
by the end of the opening
stanza, the Ironmen had a
27-17 lead. And, that grew to
47-27 at intermission.
Usually, we dont get off
to big starts, Duerksen said.
Sometimes, it seems we
dont get going till about
halfway through the quarter.
It seems like we need 3-4
minutes to get going.
Dingman paced
Mancelona with 23 points, 4
rebounds, 4 steals and 2
assists. And, Griffin Borst hit
a new season-high for him
with 18 points, 2 steals and 1
assist in the win.
Also contributing for the
Ironmen were: Winstead
with 7 points, 6 rebounds
and 2 assists; Spires with 7
points, 5 rebounds and 1
steal; Logan Borst with 6
points, 7 assists and 4 steals;
and Trevor Straight-Carver
with 1 point and 4 rebounds.
Mancelona 61
Onaway 43
A solid defensive effort
helped the visiting Ironmen
get a measure of revenge for
a loss earlier this season, as
Mancelona topped rival
Onaway, 61-43, on
Wednesday, Feb. 12.
The Ironmen got the bet-
ter of the Cardinals early,
leading 21-10 after the first
period and 30-13 at the half.
We played well,
Duerksen said. We had a
nice game defensively. We
contested every shot.
Dingman torched
Onaway for a double-dou-
ble of 31 points, 11
rebounds, 2 assists and 1
steal.
Logan Borst added 12
points, 3 steals and 3 assists,
while Spires helped his team
with 8 points, 5 rebounds, 2
assists and 1 steal.
Joe O'Bradovich tallied 21
to pace the Cardinals, who
had difficulty getting
untracked against
Mancelona's defensive pres-
sure. Andrew Prow added 9
points and Carlos Bautista
hit for 8 points, as Onaway
slipped to 11-4 overall for
the season.

Dennis Mansfield, Buckland
News Service.
CHARLEVOIX The
Grayling boys varsity basket-
ball team couldnt make an
early lead stick and fell to
host Charlevoix, 65-60, in a
clash of the two Lake
Michigan Conference hoops
squads Friday, Feb. 14.
The visiting Vikings (9-7
overall, 5-7 conference) got
the early edge on Charlevoix,
leading 20-15 at the end of
the first quarter. But, after
that, it was the Rayders who
dominated the scoreboard.
Charlevoix chipped away
at Graylings lead by outscor-
ing the Vikes by two points,
16-14, in the second quarter
and trailed by just three
points, 34-31, at halftime.
The Rayders then out-
gunned Grayling in the sec-
ond half, including 19-15 in
the third quarter and 15-11 in
the final eight minutes.
Tyler McClanahan paced
the Vikings with a team-high
17 points, 2 rebounds and 2
assists. Scout Tobin and Matt
Burrell each scored 11 points
in the loss, with Tobin also
chipping in with 2 rebounds,
1 steal and 2 assists. Burrell
also tallied 1 rebound and 1
steal against the Rayders.
Other contributors for
Grayling included: Mason
Papendick with 6 points, 4
rebounds, 1 steal and 1 assist;
Geoff Wilson with 4 points, 3
rebounds and 1 steal;
Michael Branch with 3
points, 8 rebounds and 2
steals; Jake Swander with 3
points, 1 rebound, 3 steals, 3
assists and 1 blocked shot;
Peyton Zigila with 3 points, 1
rebound and 1 steal; Emmett
Helsel with 2 points, 4
rebounds and 1 steal; and
Carson Burmeister with 6
rebounds, 1 steal and 4
assists.
We had a lot of positives
in this game, said Grayling
head coach Rich Moffit. We
moved Tyler McClanahan to
the No. 2 lane in transition
and he was able to score in
our transition break.
Matt Burrell and Scout
Tobin played very well off the
bench. Mason Papendick
played solid in the paint, he
added. I saw growth in a lot
of areas.
Of course, there was also a
down side in the loss.
On the negative side, we
have to be more aggressive
and get to the rim, Moffit
said. Charlevoix shot 22
more free throws than we
did.
Boyne City 65
Grayling 38
Host Boyne City made
quick work of the Vikings
before sending them home
with a 65-38 loss on Tuesday,
Feb. 11.
The Ramblers put up more
points in the first quarter
alone, than Grayling man-
aged in the first half, while
building a 37-17 lead at half-
time. The Vikings tried to
rally and outgunned Boyne
City, 14-10, in the third quar-
ter. But, the Ramblers ended
any thoughts of a comeback
by dominating the fourth
quarter, 18-7.
"Boyne City has an out-
standing team led by Cory
Redman and Ryan Carson,
Moffit said. They took us out
of what we were trying to
accomplish offensively and
shot very well from the field."
McClanahan was the only
Viking in double figures with
12 points, 1 rebound, 1 steal,
3 assists and 1 blocked shot.
Also contributing for
Grayling were: Burmeister
with 6 points and 1 steal;
Wilson with 6 points and 1
rebound; Justice Junttila with
3 points, 6 rebounds and 2
steals; Zigila with 3 points, 4
rebounds and 1 steal; Tobin
with 3 points, 1 rebound and
1 steal; Branch with 2 points,
3 rebounds and 1 steal;
Burrell with 2 points, 3
rebounds, 1 steal and 1 assist;
Gunner Metzer with 1 point
and 1 blocked shot; Helsel
with 4 rebounds; Papendick
with 2 rebounds; Swander
and Darin Nicholas with 1
steal and 1 assist each; Zane
Pittman with 1 blocked shot;
and Scott Wakeley with 1
rebound.

After loss to West, Devils will play at Cadillac this Thursday, Feb. 20, with BNC title on the line
Basketball
By Mike Dunn
TRAVERSE CITY The
Gaylord girls of coach Frank
Hamilla saw their perfect
record in the Big North
snapped on Friday, Feb. 14, at
the court of Traverse City
West. Gaylord played out-
standing defense, limiting
the host Titans to less than 40
points but struggled all night
putting points in its own bas-
ket and suffered a 37-21 set-
back.
We couldnt buy a basket
in the game, Hamilla report-
ed. We were 7-of-43 shoot-
ing for the night (16 percent).
I give West credit for playing
a very good game but I think
we showed the effects of
playing three intense basket-
ball games in four nights. The
bottom line is we have to
play over that and get ready
for the upcoming week.
The loss to West sets up a
HUGE league showdown at
Cadillac this Thursday, Feb.
20. The game at the court of
the Vikings will determine
who wins the Big North title.
The Blue Devils will be fight-
ing for their first-ever league
crown.
Well be playing for a con-
ference title and I know my
girls will give 100 percent,
Hamilla said.
In the tough loss to West,
Gaylord led 7-6 after the first
quarter but trailed 18-12 at
the half and 28-19 going into
the fourth quarter.
Super sophomore Brandi
Wagner was back in the line-
up and led the scoring attack,
waxing the twine for eight
points, and senior Maddie
Hamilla added six. Lindsey
Zaremba pulled down six
rebounds.
The Gaylord JV of coach
Shelly Curtis posted a 35-24
victory to push their record
to a sparkling 15-2 this sea-
son!
Adrienne Edwards played
bark-tight defense, limiting
the Titans top scorer to just
two points on the night. Arica
Alread also showed up big
defensively off the bench.
Casey Korte had the C-Ko
flowing, canning 13 points to
lead the offense for the
young Blue Devils, while
Maddy Sides and Edwards
each tipped the twine for
eight points.
ON WEDNESDAY, Feb. 12,
the busy Blue Devils pushed
their record to 9-0 in the Big
North with a 50-38 victory
over visiting T.C. Central. It
was a super night for the two
Sydneys on the Gaylord ros-
ter.
Sydney Kassuba stroked
the twine for 12 points to
lead a balanced scoring
attack and Sydney Gooding
struck for a career-high 11
points. Hamilla hammered
the nets for nine and the reli-
able Zaremba zeroed in for
seven.
ON TUESDAY, Feb. 11, the
Blue Devils played at
Cheboygan and dropped a
40-34 decision. Gaylord
trailed 12-8 after one quarter
but rallied to tie the score at
19 at the half and the score
was still tied 28-28 going into
the final quarter. The Chiefs
outscored visiting Gaylord
12-6 in the final eight min-
utes of play to secure the win,
though it was still just a two-
point game with 1:30 left to
play.
Maddie Hamilla made the
nets hum to the tune of 16
points to pace the Blue
Devils. Zaremba zoned in for
seven points and Lauren
Hintz hit for six. Zaremba
and Sydney Kassuba were
forces under the glass, each
collecting 10 boards. Sydney
Gooding and Kassuba each
issued three assists. Hamilla
and Hintz each recorded
three steals.
The Gaylord JV girls of
coach Curtis secured a 36-14
decision over the Chiefs.
The young Blue Devils led
just 12-6 at the half before
turning on the juice in the
third and fourth quarters.
Once again, Casey Korte had
the C-Ko flowing, taming the
twine for 21 points and earn-
ing a double-double with 11
rebounds. Casey also spread
the wealth, issuing seven
assists in the contest. Mallory
Marshall added muscle to
the attack as well, measuring
the nets for eight points with
four assists.
Gaylord (12-5, 9-1) played
host to Clare in non-league
play on Tuesday, Feb. 18, and
played at Petoskey on
Wednesday, Feb. 19, in the
next-to-last league game of
the season.
The Blue Devils take on
Cadillac on Thursday, Feb.
20, to close out the regular
season. Gaylord opens Class

TRAVERSE CITY The Bay
Reps hockey team hosted the
Inaugural Northern
Michigan Hockey League
Championship at Centre Ice
Arena in Traverse City on
Friday and Saturday.
In the first contest on
Friday, Manistee defeated
Petoskey 3-1. In the nightcap
the Reps lost a 2-1 heart-
breaker to Cheboygan in
overtime.
After a scoreless first peri-
od, Josh Hill hammered one
home to put the Reps on top
of Cheboygan 1-0. Hills
unassisted goal came with
7:22 remaining in the second
period.
The Reps would hold that
lead until the third period
with just 44 seconds remain-
ing when the Chiefs Austin
Christie lit the scoring lamp
with an assist from Nate
Stempky to send the game
into overtime. The Chiefs
goal came with their goal-
tender off the ice for an extra
attacker.
Cheboygans Gavin
Armstrong scored the game
winner with 3:57 left in OT to
send the Chiefs to a matchup
for the league championship
with Manistee on Saturday.
Cheboygan defeated
Manistee 5-0 to win the
league title.
In the consolation game
Bay Area outshot Petoskey
19-0 in the opening period
but a shot from Hill would be
the only one that would
evade Northern netminder
Mike Whittaker and the Reps
led 1-0 after one period.
Bay Area outshot Petoskey
9-6 in the second period but
Bryndan Worden of the
Northmen tied to score at 1-1
with 8:18 to go in the period
to set up a tense final period.
Despite being outshot 2-1 in
the third period, Petoskey
scored twice to take a 3-1 win
and claim third place in the
league.
The Reps will battle
Traverse City West on
Monday, Feb. 24, at 7 p.m. at
Howe Arena in the first round
of the Division I Michigan
High School Hockey
Championships.
Reps host first
league championship
Cheboygan wins 2-1 OT thriller over Reps in semifinals before
shutting out Manistee in finals

MANCELONA Inland
Lakes had no answer for
Mancelonas Emily Nixon
and Eileene Naniseni, as the
duo powered the Lady
Ironmens varsity team to a
67-23 win over their Ski Valley
Conference rival Saturday,
Feb. 15.
Nixon had an outstanding
performance and posted a
triple-double including a
team-high 19 points, 13
rebounds, 10 steals and 2
assists. It was her second
triple-double of the season.
Naniseni, whos still recov-
ering from an injury, was
equally impressive with a
double-double of 16 points,
20 rebounds, 2 steals, 1 assist
and 5 blocked shots.
Still, at least early on, the
visiting Bulldogs managed to
keep the game close, with
Mancelona leading by just
two points, 13-11, at the end
of the opening period.
But, the Lady Ironmen (7-9
overall, 5-8 conference) start-
ed to pull away in the second
quarter and held a 27-19
advantage at halftime. That
was followed by an 18-0
explosion in the third stanza.
The lead allowed head
coach Ben Tarbutton to play
his bench, with every player
scoring for the Lady
Ironmen.
Also contributing for
Mancelona in Saturdays win
were: Tyra Oetting with 8
points, 2 rebounds, 3 steals
and 2 assists; Sara Hittle with
5 points, 3 rebounds, 4 steals,
4 assists and 1 blocked shot;
Tori Reicheldefer with 5
points, 3 rebounds and 2
steals; Jill Smigelski with 5
points, 2 rebounds, 1 steal
and 2 assists; Megan Morris
with 4 points, , 2 rebounds
and 1 assist; Bekky Piatt with
3 points; and Ashley Joseph
with 2 points, 4 steals and 4
assists.
It will be a tough week this
week with Bellaire away (Feb.
18), Joburg on Thursday (Feb.
20) away and Pellston on
Friday (Feb. 21) away, said
Tarbutton. But, it is a good
week to prepare for our dis-
trict against East Jordan.
Mancelona 50
Forest Area 18
The Lady Ironmen werent
exactly gracious hosts
Thursday, Feb. 13, sending
visiting Forest Area home
with a 50-18 loss.
Mancelona immediately
jumped out in front, using a
10-0 run at the start of the
game to open up a 13-2 lead
in the first quarter. Things for
the Warriors only got worse,
as they trailed at intermis-
sion, 34-6.
Naniseni powered the Lady
Ironmens attack with yet
another double-double of 11
points, 16 rebounds, 2 steals,
1 assist and 3 blocked shots.
Nixon and Joseph each hit
for 9 points in the win. Nixon
also chipped in 7 rebounds, 3
steals, 1 assist and 1 blocked
shot, while Joseph had 3
steals.
Other contributors for
Mancelona included: Hittle
with 8 points, 6 rebounds, 3
steals and 1 assist; Oetting
with 5 points, 4 rebounds
and 1 assist; Piatt with 3
points and 1 rebound; Morris
with 2 points, 4 rebounds, 2
steals and 1 assist; Rebekah
Seeley with 2 points and 4
rebounds; Smigelski with 1
point, 2 rebounds and 3
steals; Reicheldefer with 1
rebound, 1 steal and 1 assist;
and Hannah Hardy with 1
rebound and 1 steal.
Gaylord St. Mary 55
Mancelona 15
The only blemish for the
Lady Ironmen last week was
a 55-15 thumping at the
hands of host Gaylord St.
Mary, the leading team in the
SVC, on Wednesday, Feb. 12.
Already down 36-9 at half-
time, Mancelonas struggles
continued after intermission.
The Lady Ironmen managed
just six points in the third
quarter and were held score-
less in the final stanza.
Naniseni and Nixon led
Mancelona with 4 points
each. Naniseni also grabbed
a team-high 8 rebounds to go
with 1 assist and 2 blocked
shots in the loss. Nixon tal-
lied 6 rebounds, 1 steal and 1
blocked shot.
Mancelona also got contri-
butions from: Joseph with 5
points, 2 rebounds and 1
steal; Reicheldefer with 2
points, 4 rebounds and 1
assist; Hittle with 3 rebounds,
2 steals and 1 assist; Morris

GAYLORD The scenario
was the same for the young,
scrappy Gaylord hockey
team over the weekend. The
Blue Devils showed plenty of
heart and fight but just
couldnt generate enough
firepower to overcome a
pretty good Alliance team on
the home ice.
Gaylord lost 5-2 on Friday
and 4-2 on Saturday. The
Blue Devils saw their deceiv-
ing record slip to 1-18-1 for
this tough season.
In Fridays game, Alliance
pulled to a 2-0 advantage on
the scoreboard over the first
two periods only to have the
Blue Devils come storming
back in the third period to tie
the score. Gaylords top goal
producer this season, Gatlin
Gun Garrett Richardson,
was on target for his 14th
tally of the campaign on a
power play just 16 seconds
into the third period, taking a
pretty feed from teammate
Cam Laug and converting it
into a rocket blast to light the
lamp and trim the deficit to
2-1.
Just 25 seconds later, it was
Jack Ryan bolting and jolting
to knot the score at 2. Jack
jammed one home to score
his first goal of the season,
taking a perfect pass from
opportunistic Jackson Deans
before converging on the
enemy net and leaving
Alliance goalkeeper Nick
Seosock futilely sprawling on
the ice.
Unfortunately, it was the
final goal for Gaylord in this
one. Alliance took advantage
of a power play to pull ahead
midway through the period
and then added two more in
the final minutes, including
an empty-netter, to pull
away. The 5-2 final score
doesnt reflect the true com-
petitiveness of the game.
Alliance out-shot Gaylord
38-20 but the Blue Devils
stopped 6-of-7 Alliance
power play chances. Goalie
Ethan ODell made some
outstanding saves and
turned away 33 of 37 shots
directed at him.
On Saturday, Alliance once
again got off to a 2-0 lead
before Gaylord battled back
to tie the score again.
The visitors were up by two
goals when the ever-danger-
ous Richardson loaded up
the cannon and rang up his
15th goal of the campaign
with help from the ubiqui-
tous Jackson Deans, who
earned his eighth assist. That
made it a 2-1 count.
Then it was Blake Miller
blasting one home on a
power play in the final
minute of the opening peri-
od, taking the puck from
Richardson to make the
twine dance in the back of
the net and tie the score at 2.
Alliance, which struggled
to get scoring chances in the
game, used a power play to
go on top 3-2 in the second
period and another power
play to clinch the win in the
third period.
For the game, Gaylord
racked up 41 shots on net
with a relentless attack but
Alliance goalie Andrew
Larson was up to the task,
turning away a whopping 39
shots to preserve the win.
The visitors had 17 shots on
net.
Gaylord (1-18-1) played at
Alpena on Wednesday, Feb.
19, and at T.C. Central on
Thursday, Feb. 20. This
Saturday, Feb. 22, the Blue
Devils conclude the regular
season at home against
Petoskey.
Effort is there in home defeats on Friday and Saturday; Richardson rings up 14th and 15th goals

ONAWAY The Onaway
boys of coach Eddy
Szymoniak pushed their
record to 12-4 overall and 9-3
in the league with a 59-43 tri-
umph over Ski Valley foe
Inland Lakes on Friday, Feb.
14.
Senior forward Joe
OBradovich added to the
laurels of his monster season
with another solid showing.
The sweet-shooting Joey-O
jammed the twine for 16
points to lead a balanced
scoring ledger. Chris Cleaver
canned 12 to help the cause
and secured five steals while
senior Carlos Bautista busted
the nets for nine and domi-
nated play inside, bringing
down a whopping 17
rebounds while exchanging
bruises with the Bulldogs
bigs.
Onaway rallied from a 12-
10 first-quarter deficit to
finally surge past the young,
scrappy Bulldogs in the third
quarter.
ON WEDNESDAY, Feb. 12,
in the 61-43 loss to host
Mancelona, it was
OBradovich blistering the
nets for 20 points and
Andrew Prow pummeling the
iron for nine.
The Cardinals (12-4, 9-3)
played at Forest Area on
Wednesday, Feb. 19, and are
home against Pellston on
Friday, Feb. 21.
Forest Area 74
Pellston 69
FIFE LAKE The visiting
Hornets gave host Forest
Area a stiff battle on Monday
in a makeup Ski Valley clash
before falling by a 74-69 mar-
gin in an exciting seesaw
contest.
Will Sheldon struck for 24
points for Pellston to help
keep the visitors in the hunt
to the end and Austin Hamlin
hammered the nets for 21.
Justin Burke, who is fast
approaching the 1,000-point
plateau for his career, led the
Warriors with 30 points and
grabbed 10 rebounds and
Austin Vance added 26 with
10 boards.
Pellston (5-12, 5-9) hosted
Bellaire on Wednesday, Feb.
19. The Hornets play at
Onaway on Friday, Feb. 21,
and at St. Ignace on Tuesday,
Feb. 25.
Gaylord St. Mary 51
Pellston 37
GAYLORD The St. Mary
boys of coach Ken Blust won
their third game in three days
on Friday, Feb. 14, outscoring
visiting Pellston 51-37 to
improve to 6-8 overall and 4-
7 in the Ski Valley [also see a
report on St. Marys game
Monday at Johannesburg in
this issue].
Rangy St. Mary senior for-
ward Charles Strehl, who is
having a monster year, con-
tributed another 23 points
while completely dominating
play under the boards.
Charles didnt just wipe the
glass clean, he rinsed and
waxed the glass at the same
time, pulling down an amaz-
ing 20 rebounds.
Junior Joltin Jack
Lochinski landed 10 points
through the iron with four
assists and Nick Harrington
hit for nine points and issued
five assists. Anders Marquard
made his presence felt in the
win also, making four points
while issuing six assists.
Blust was especially
pleased with his teams ball
handling of Harrington,
Lochinski and Marquard
against the hungry Hornets.
I think we came out very
focused tonight, having com-
mitted only 10 turnovers
tonight, Blust said. We con-
tinue to see our consistent
production in Charles, Nick,
and Jack, but I was very
pleased with the effort of
Anders; he hustled every-
where on the court. Charles
was all over the glass again
tonight.
Senior center Tanner Keller
canned 13 points for Pellston
and pulled down 10 boards
for a double-double.
ON THURSDAY, Feb. 13, in
the tense 54-51 win over
Central Lake, it was junior
Jack Lochinski coming
through big time, jamming
the twine for 18 points while
covering the floor like wet on
water, making six steals.
Harrington had a big night
as well, taming the twine for
17 points while making pin-
point passes to teammates
and accumulating eight
assists. Strehl, who drew
Trojan defenders like mag-
nets all game long, struck for
15 points and grabbed 11
boards for a double-double.
Hillman 65
Mio 57
MIO The Mio boys played
host to Hillman, the only
team that had beaten the
Thunderbolts previously, and
hoped to even the score on
Tuesday, Feb. 11, but the
Tigers once again proved to
have the Bolts number this
season.
Hillman pushed its win-
ning streak to 10 games with
a hard-fought 65-57 victory
over the Thunderbolts. The
Tigers improved to 14-1 over-
all and 8-0 in the league
while Mio slipped to 12-2
overall, with both losses
coming at the hands of the
Tigers, and 8-1 in the league
(the game at Mio did not
count in the league stand-
ings).
Sophomore wing Big
Ben Lubitz led the way for
Mio with 19 points in anoth-
er typically effective per-
formance and shifty senior
guard Seth Thomey secured
16.
Mason VanPamel pum-
meled the nets for 28 points
to lead the visitors.
Mio, which improved to
13-2 with a 78-38 win at
Oscoda on Friday, Feb. 14,
faced Rogers City at home on
Tuesday, Feb. 18. The Bolts
play at Whittemore-Prescott
on Friday, Feb. 21, and on
Monday, Feb. 24, they are
home against Au Gres-Sims.
Mackinaw City 80
Alba 49
MACKINAW CITY The
Mackinaw City boys of coach
Austin Krieg assaulted the
iron for 80 points in an
impressive 80-49 victory over
visiting Alba on Thursday,
Feb. 13.
Noah Morse flooded the
nets with 26 points to lead
the way for the high-powered
Comets on Senior Night.
Noah, one of three seniors on
the Mack City roster, had the
arc of his shots flowing from
long range as he plopped
four missiles through the
nets from 3-point land.
Noah was one of four
Comets in double figures on
the night. Zach Smith
drained the nets for 16
points, Carlos Hit Man
Hartman canned 11, and
Matt Rivera rang up 10. Jonah
Robbins recorded seven and
Tim Somers lit it up for five.
Alba, playing without the
services of star player
Brandon Milbocker, still gave
a gritty effort against a Mack
City team with superior
depth and firepower.
Daniel Hegemann waxed
the nets for 12 points to lead
the tenacious Wildcats. Nate
Willett and Andrew Millard
each made the nets dance to
the tune of 10 points.
Mack City (12-4, 8-2) trav-
eled to Pickford for a non-
league clash on Wednesday,
Feb. 19. On Friday, Feb. 21,
the Comets host Vanderbilt
for Homecoming.

TRAVERSE CITY -- Adam
Jeannotte scored two goals
and Quaid Brooks made 19
saves Saturday as the
Cheboygan High School
hockey team downed
Manistee, 5-1, to win the
Northern Michigan Hockey
League Tournament champi-
onship game at Centre ICE.
The Chiefs, 10-14, close the
regular season with a non-
league game at Cadillac on
Friday, Feb. 21. They play at
Sault Ste. Marie in a Division
III pre-regional game on
Wednesday, Feb. 26.
Josh Stempky, Hunter
Filice and Austin Christie
also scored in the Chiefs win
over Manistee, while John
Grantner, Matt Grisdale,
Stempky and Christie each
had an assist.
It was the second confer-
ence championship in three
seasons for Cheboygan. The
Chiefs shared the league
crown with the Bay Area Reps
in 2011-12.
The Chiefs rallied to beat
the Reps, 2-1, in overtime, to
reach the NMHL title game.
Christie scored off a
rebound with under a
minute remaining to tie the
game at 1-1. Zack Schley
scored the game-winner four
minutes into the extra ses-
sion.
Christie and Jeannotte
drew the assists on Schleys
goal, while Stempky assisted
on Christies goal.
The Reps outshot the
Chiefs, 32-20. Brooks
stopped 31 shots for the win.
Petoskey split its two
games in the tournament,
beating Bay Area, 3-1, in
Saturdays consolation game
to snap a 10-game losing
streak.
Bryndon Worden, Ben
Schwartzfisher and Dameon
Spencer scored the goals for
Petoskey, while Tom
Crampton picked up an
assist. Spencers goal was
shorthanded.
Petoskey opened the tour-
nament with a 3-1 loss to
Manistee. Mike Forton
scored for the Northmen, 2-
18-3. Mike Whittaker took the
loss in goal.
Petoskey was to play host
to Cadillac on Wednesday,
Feb. 19, and closes the regu-
lar season on Saturday, Feb.
22, at Gaylord. Both are Big
North Conference games.
The Cadillac contest, at
Griffin Arena, is Petoskeys
home finale.
The Northmen drew
Muskegon Mona Shores as a
Division II first-round pre-
regional opponent. The two
teams are scheduled to
square off on Tuesday, Feb.
25, at LC Walker Arena in
Muskegon. The winner will
face either Muskegon
Reeths-Puffer or Traverse
City Central on Thursday,

CHEBOYGAN The kind of
game, and, more important-
ly, the kind of performance,
that a team covets with the
state tournament nigh.
After squandering a 12-
point halftime lead,
Cheboygan used a 14-0
fourth-quarter run in top-
ping Alpena, 57-46, Monday
in a non-league girls basket-
ball game.
The victory completed a
season sweep of the Wildcats
and it lifted the Chiefs to 11-
7, guaranteeing Cheboygan a
winning regular-season
record.
"They took Alpena's best
punch through the third
quarter and the beginning of
the fourth quarter,"
Cheboygan coach Jason
Purcell said of his players.
"They took that punch, they
got back up, and they
responded, so I'm really
proud of the girls for doing
that.
To be quite honest, being
the last week of the season, I
don't mind a good, tight
game like this, because I told
the girls that they're learning
how to win close games."
The Chiefs were scheduled
to play at Newberry on
Wednesday in a Straits Area
Conference makeup contest,
and on Thursday will play at
St. Ignace in the annual
Shooting for a Cure game.
The Saints, Class D state
champions a year ago,
entered the week 16-2 and
ranked second in Class C by
the Detroit Free Press.
Cheboygan is scheduled to
open Class B District
Tournament play on
Monday, Feb. 24, at home
against Roscommon.
Brooke Hancock scored 16
points and grabbed eight
rebounds, and point guard
Bridget Blaskowski added 13
points to lead the Chiefs past
Alpena. Autumn Hudak
added nine points and
Carolyn Clark had eight
points and six rebounds.
The win over the Wildcats
Cheboygans sixth in its last
eight starts -- came on the
heels of a 40-34 victory over
Gaylord, which headed into
the final week of the regular
season locked in a battle with
Cadillac for the Big North
Conference championship.
Hudak and Hancock
scored 10 points apiece and
Clark had eight to lead the
Chiefs past Gaylord. Macey
Charboneau grabbed seven
rebounds, Clark had six and
Hudak added five.
Blaskowski finished with
nine points and seven assists.
Chiefs enter stretch run
The Cheboygan High
School boys basketball team
entered the week looking to
right the ship after a pair of
tough losses against
extremely strong competi-
tion a week ago.
The Chiefs fell to Alpena,
71-31, and to Muskegon
Heights PS Academy, 98-65.
Alpena entered the week 14-1
the only blemish on the
Wildcats ledger is a two-
point loss to Traverse City
Central in the season-opener
and was firmly in the dri-
vers seat in the Big North
Conference.
Heights, 14-2, is the former
Muskegon Heights High
School, a longtime Class B
powerhouse that is now a
charter school.
Cheboygan was scheduled
to play host to Gaylord in a
non-league game on
Tuesday, and will entertain
St. Ignace in a Straight Area
Conference game on Friday.
The Chiefs are 6-1 in the
SAC and have already
wrapped up the conference
championship, their first
since 2010.

PETOSKEY It could be a
feather in the cap.
It could mean a whole lot
more.
The Petoskey High School
boys basketball team will
play host to Alpena on
Friday, Feb. 21, in a game
that may amount to every-
thing, or nothing in terms of
the Big North Conference
championship.
The Northmen entered
the week 11-5 overall and 7-3
in the league. Alpena was 14-
1, 9-1. Only a 64-62 loss to
Traverse City Central in their
season opener separates the
Wildcats and a perfect sea-
son.
Petoskey was scheduled to
play at Sault Ste. Marie in a
non-league game on
Tuesday, while the Wildcats
were slated to play host to
Tawas Area in a non-leaguer
on Wednesday.
Neither of those games
matter in the league sce-
nario, which shapes up like
this:
Alpena needs to win one
of its final two league games
to clinch the outright Big
North title. The Wildcats play
host to West Branch
Ogemaw Heights in their
league finale on Thursday,
Feb. 27. The same night,
Petoskey plays at Gaylord in
its final conference game.
Petoskey cannot win the
championship outright, but
it can share the title with
Alpena. The only way for
that to happen is Petoskey
must beat both the Wildcats
and Blue Devils, AND
Alpena must also lose to
Ogemaw.
No matter what happens
over the next week or so,
Petoskey clearly will reap
long-term benefits from
having been in the heat of a
pennant race with just one
senior starter, Joe LaBlanc,
and four sophomores who
either start or are among the
first subs off the bench.
If Alpena does indeed win
the league crown, the
Wildcats will have earned it.
They have won at Cadillac
and at Traverse City West in
the eight days leading up to
their visit to Petoskey. They
scored a resounding 70-46
win over Cadillac, and
nipped West, 72-70, on a
buzzer-beating putback by
Andy Marwede.
Those two wins allowed
Alpena to bolt ahead of the
pack and leave its one-time
competitors Cadillac and
West -- in the dust. Petoskey
remains in the hunt, but for
the Northmen, its win no
easy task against a very good
Alpena team that beat
Petoskey, 67-61, in their first
meeting and hope.
Jason Bur and Aron Lee
scored 11 points each, while
Brandon Carson and Evan
Whitmore added 10 apiece
to lead the Northmen to a
62-41 victory over Ogemaw
last Friday.
All four players are sopho-
mores.
Northmen girls fall
Ogemaw Heights handed
Petoskey a 45-40 Big North
Conference girls basketball
loss on Friday.
It was the 14th consecu-
tive loss for Petoskey, which
is 1-16 overall, 0-9 in the
league. The Northmen earli-
er last week dropped a 66-19
decision to St. Ignace, which
is 16-2 and ranked second in
Class C by the Detroit Free
Press.
Kati Lewis scored 20
points to lead the Northmen
against Ogemaw.
The Northmen were
scheduled to face Sault Ste.
Marie in a non-league game
on Tuesday and Gaylord in a
Big North Conference tilt on
Wednesday, before traveling
to Alpena on Friday for a Big
North game.
Petoskey opens Class A
District Tournament play at
home on Monday, Feb. 24,
against Traverse City
Central. The Northmen and
Trojans split their season
series, both winning on the
road.

New state laws designed to
deter poaching of antlered
bucks, especially those with
trophy-sized racks, and to
reduce recreational trespass
are now in effect in Michigan,
the Department of Natural
Resources (DNR) announced
today.
The new laws make several
changes to the fines and
restitution payments for
poaching deer, including a
progressive penalty system:
For any deer with or with-
out antlers, the base restitu-
tion will be $1,000;
For any antlered deer,
there will be an additional
restitution of $1,000 plus;
For antlered deer with 8
to 10 points, an additional
$500 will be assessed for each
point; and
For antlered deer with 11
or more points, an additional
$750 will be assessed for each
point.
A point is defined in the
bill as being at least 1 inch
long as measured from its tip
to the nearest edge of the
antler beam.
As an example, illegally
killing a 10-point buck in
Michigan will now result in a
$7,000 restitution plus fines
and court costs.
Poachers also now face
stronger penalties related to
hunting privileges. Under
previous law, poachers would
lose their hunting privileges
in Michigan for remainder of
the year of the conviction
plus three years. Under the
new law, poachers who kill
an antlered buck will now
lose their hunting privileges
for an additional two years
on their first offense (poten-
tially six years in total) and an
additional seven years on
second and subsequent
offenses (potentially 11 years
in total).
In addition, the new laws
address recreational trespass
by increasing the civil dam-
age award that a landowner
may recover. Previously
under the law, the maximum
amount a landowner could
recover from someone who
trespasses on his or her land
to hunt or engage in other
recreational activity was $250
or actual property damages.
Under the new law, the civil
action increases to $750 or
actual property damages.
Additionally, if someone kills
any protected animal, game
or fish while trespassing, the
new law creates a new misde-
meanor with higher fines
than allowed for a first viola-
tion.
Poachers who are target-
ing trophy deer will commit
multiple violations to do so,
including trespass, unlawful
shining, hunting at night and
not wearing hunter orange,
said Dean Molnar, assistant
chief of the DNR Law
Enforcement Division.
These new laws give us
more tools to go after these
individuals, and are designed
to reduce poaching of
antlered deer in particular.
New laws now in effect increase
penalties for poaching antlered
deer, recreational trespass

Actions speak louder than a bumper sticker
--E.B. Bull
Back in the Jesus People Movement bumper stickers about
our faith were all the rage. HONK IF YOU LOVE JESUS! was
one of the most common followed by WAVE IF YOU LOVE
JESUS. Then there were some with more of a theological
bentTURN OR BURN or GET RIGHT OR END UP LEFT.
One of my favorites was MY BOSS IS A JEWISH CARPENTER.
That often generated some interesting conversations when I
showed up on a construction site.
The problem with bumper stickers is that they are just words.
Oh, they might be good words, usually clever words, hopefully
true words but with no action to back them up they are just
words. The nice thing about bumper stickers is that youre usu-
ally moving at a high enough rate of speed no one expects an
action. One young man I was acquainted with learned the les-
son about bumper stickers one day. He was traveling down the
highway when he noticed a car on the side of the freeway. He
pulled over and got out to offer assistance. A well-dressed mid-
dle-aged lady exited her car pulling money out of her purse say-
ing, Ive got money, I can pay, please dont leave me! The
young man admonished her to put her money away. She had a
flat tire but no spare. He removed her tire, loaded it in his vehi-
cle and told hed be back soon. She was frightened to be alone
so he offered her a ride. They went into the next town, got the
tire fixed and brought it back. In no time she was ready to be on
her way. As the grateful woman left the young man realized that
the last hour had spoke more about his faith in Jesus that all the
bumper stickers plastered on the rear of his vehicle including
the GOD IS MY COPILOT license plate on the front.
Lord, help me to never forget that just as faith without action
is dead bumper stickers without action are just pretty pieces of
paper. Amen.

THURSDAY: Genesis 9:11-13 New American Standard Bible (NASB) 11 I establish My covenant with you; and all flesh shall never
again be cut off by the water of the flood, neither shall there again be a flood to destroy the earth. 12 God said, This is
the sign of the covenant which I am making between Me and you and every living creature that is with you, for all succes-
sive generations; 13 I set My bow in the cloud, and it shall be for a sign of a covenant between Me and the earth.
FRIDAY: Joshua 4:5-7 New American Standard Bible (NASB) 5 and Joshua said to them, Cross again to the ark of the Lord your
God into the middle of the Jordan, and each of you take up a stone on his shoulder, according to the number of the tribes
of the sons of Israel. 6 Let this be a sign among you, so that when your children ask later, saying, What do these stones
mean to you? 7 then you shall say to them, Because the waters of the Jordan were cut off before the ark of the covenant of
the Lord; when it crossed the Jordan, the waters of the Jordan were cut off. So these stones shall become a memorial to
the sons of Israel forever.
SATURDAY: 1 Samuel 10:6-9 New American Standard Bible (NASB) 6 Then the Spirit of the Lord will come upon you mightily, and
you shall prophesy with them and be changed into another man. 7 It shall be when these signs come to you, do for yourself
what the occasion requires, for God is with you. 8 And you shall go down before me to Gilgal; and behold, I will come down
to you to offer burnt offerings and sacrifice peace offerings. You shall wait seven days until I come to you and show you
what you should do. 9 Then it happened when he turned his back to leave Samuel, God changed his heart; and all those
signs came about on that day.
SUNDAY: Exodus 31:16-18 New American Standard Bible (NASB) 16 So the sons of Israel shall observe the sabbath, to celebrate the
sabbath throughout their generations as a perpetual covenant. 17 It is a sign between Me and the sons of Israel forever; for
in six days the Lord made heaven and earth, but on the seventh day He ceased from labor, and was refreshed. 18 When
He had finished speaking with him upon Mount Sinai, He gave Moses the two tablets of the testimony, tablets of stone, writ-
ten by the finger of God.
MONDAY: Matthew 24:3-8 New American Standard Bible (NASB) 3 As He was sitting on the Mount of Olives, the disciples came to
Him privately, saying, Tell us, when will these things happen, and what will be the sign of Your coming, and of the end of
the age? 4 And Jesus answered and said to them, See to it that no one misleads you. 5 For many will come in My name,
saying, I am the Christ, and will mislead many. 6 You will be hearing of wars and rumors of wars. See that you are not
frightened, for those things must take place, but that is not yet the end. 7 For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom
against kingdom, and in various places there will be famines and earthquakes. 8 But all these things are merely the begin-
ning of birth pangs.
TUESDAY: Luke 2:9-14 New American Standard Bible (NASB) 9 And an angel of the Lord suddenly stood before them, and the
glory of the Lord shone around them; and they were terribly frightened. 10 But the angel said to them, Do not be afraid;
for behold, I bring you good news of great joy which will be for all the people; 11 for today in the city of David there has
been born for you a Savior, who is Christ the Lord. 12 This will be a sign for you: you will find a baby wrapped in cloths
and lying in a manger. 13 And suddenly there appeared with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God and
saying, 14 Glory to God in the highest, And on earth peace among men with whom He is pleased.
WEDNESDAY: 1 Corinthians 14:21-26 New American Standard Bible (NASB) 21 In the Law it is written, By men of strange tongues
and by the lips of strangers I will speak to this people, and even so they will not listen to Me, says the Lord. 22 So then
tongues are for a sign, not to those who believe but to unbelievers; but prophecy is for a sign, not to unbelievers but to
those who believe. 23 Therefore if the whole church assembles together and all speak in tongues, and ungifted men or unbe-
lievers enter, will they not say that you are mad? 24 But if all prophesy, and an unbeliever or an ungifted man enters, he is
convicted by all, he is called to account by all; 25 the secrets of his heart are disclosed; and so he will fall on his face and
worship God, declaring that God is certainly among you. 26 What is the outcome then, brethren? When you assemble, each
one has a psalm, has a teaching, has a revelation, has a tongue, has an interpretation. Let all things be done for edification.

Nestled along spectacular frontage on the Indian River,
this completely remodeled log-sided home is the perfect
get-away or year round retreat. And there is even a sec-
ond home with this listing that can be used to accommo-
date guests, or perhaps generate rental income.
The charming two-bedroom main home has been
meticulously remodeled right down to the wall studs.
That means new carpet, insulation, cabinetry, paint, lami-
nate floors, newer windows and more are waiting to wel-
come the new owner. The floor plan is open and ideal
for entertaining, and a covered deck overlooks the Indian
River frontage.
The 900 square foot guest home also features two bed-
rooms and it has undergone extensive remodeling as
well. There is also a two-car garage on the property that
is a whopping 50 feet deeptalk about plenty of storage
for vehicles and watercraft!
Of course, the Inland Waterway is a real shining star
here, providing easy access to Burt or Mullett Lakes and
beyond from the dock just a few steps outside your door.
This incredible Indian River property with main and
guest homes is listed at $399,900 - call Roger Kopernik
today for a private showing. (231) 597-8000 or email

Real Estate
Should
I Buy or
Sell First?
Compliments of
Ed Wohlfiel
Part 1 of 2
For homeowners aiming to sell
their home and buy another, its the
classic real estate, which came first,
the chicken or the egg, question
buy or sell first?
If you sell first, you may find your-
self under a tight deadline to find
another house, or be forced in tem-
porary quarters. If you buy first, you
may be saddled with two mortgage
payments for at least a couple
months. You may need the money
from the sale of your original home
in order to pre-qualify for a loan for
your new home. You may be facing a
job relocation and need to sell
quickly.
There are many variables
involved; there is no universal cor-
rect answer. It basically comes down
to your specific circumstances.
Dan Gregor, a Realtor in
Pickerington, Ohio, says there is
generally less pressure when you sell
first.
It really comes down to risk,
Gregor said. Its whether you want
the risk of owning two houses, or
possibly none at all.
Gregor says that if you have the
money to make two mortgage pay-
ments, the pressure is off. But if you
need to sell your house in order to
qualify for a loan, then you have no
choice youll have to sell first.
You can write contingent con-
tracts, but if you really want the
home, youll pay a premium
thats if the seller will even entertain
a contingent offer, he says.
And if you go ahead with a con-
tingent offer, then you may end up
settling for less for the house youre
selling in an effort to get it sold
quickly.
Gregor says for most people, the
stress level is lower when you sell
first.
You have time to get pre-
approved for your mortgage and see
all the housing options in the price
range youd like to buy, he said.
When your selling house is in
contract, he suggests you pick the
three best homes of those youve
viewed and prepare to make an offer
on the one that best meets your
needs.
The absolute worst that can hap-
pen is the right home isnt avail-
able, Gregor said. You end up in a
short-term rental with the cash in
your pocket and pre-approved
financing for the balance you need.
So you look like a cash buyer when
you make an offer on the home you
finally decide on.
