Class D Regional Playoff Preview

15 Mar

Chalk for the most part held serve in Class D district play.

Contenders remaining: Waterford Our Lady of the Lakes (22-0), Powers North Central (22-0), Cedarville (22-0)

Sleepers remaining: Munising, Boyne Falls, Allen Park Inter-City Baptist, Adrian Lenawee Christian, Hillman, Baldwin

Best Regional:

West Bloomfield

Teams: Waterford Our Lady of the Lakes, Bloomfield Hills Roeper, Allen Park Inter-City Baptist, Adrian Lenawee Christian

Our Lady has looked to be the team to represent Metro-Detroit in Class D for most of the year, guards Andrew Kline and Nick Robak are quite the duo for the Lakers.  Last year’s state runner-up, Lenawee Christian, has not had the year which was expected in the pre-season.  Despite a mediocre record, 12-11, the Cougars have the personnel to succeed in a playoff format.  6’8″ junior forward Maxwell is among the state’s top interior scorers and rebounders, and can single-handedly dominate a game.

Lenawee’s opponent, Inter-City has been to this very point the past three seasons, never advancing farther.  The combination of Garrett Kraatz and Luke Barber may need to shoot their way to a regional championship.
