Wednesday Weave Of H.S. Basketball

Thumb Tailgater Sports will return to the webcast internet wireless waves this Friday night for high  school boys basketball. It will feature a GTE Title fight with the Harbor Beach Pirates at the Marlette Red Raiders.
Congrats to the Owen-Gage Lady Bulldogs on winning the NCTL North Title. They do share that title with the Port Hope Lady Bluestars, who were not expected to repeat as champions by most in the sports local media. That is quite a compliment to their new head coach of this year, Marilee Schock.
Last night the Reese Lady Rockets did what many teams could not do for most of this season - Take down the formerly undefeated Sandusky Lady Redskins. The quick and smothering full court pressure defense of the Lady Rockets blasted Sandusky throughout the whole game. Sandusky did tie it a couple times in the 1st quarter, but Reese attacked right back with their smart offensive play and never lost the lead from the 2nd quarter on to the end of the game. Reese take back their crown and reign this year as the "Queens" of the Greater Thumb Conference.
Tonight could be history in the making in boys basketball with the Bay City All Saint Cougars (8-1, 13-3). They are on the verge of becoming Greater Thumb West Champions for the first time and need just one more victory to do so. But it is a gauntlet for the All Saints to get there, starting tonight against the Unionville-Sebewaing Patriots (5-4, 9-7). In the last meeting the Cougars escaped with a 66-65 win. They then have games with EPBP Lakers, and Vassar in league play.
