Monday Must Win For Title Showdowns!

Thumb Tailgater Sports is back with a live internet webcast on a Monday. It features high school baseball with the Bad Axe Hatchets at the Bay City All Saints Cougars! The Greater Thumb West title is on the line in a must win situation for both schools. Coverage starts at 4pm!
The "Wild West" also has a showdown in softball between the Reese Lady Rockets and the Unionville-Sebewaing Lady Patriots. The Patriots were undefeated in league play until Cass City handed them their first league loss. Both Reese & Unionville-Sebewaing have only one loss a piece in the GTW. They could share or outright take command of the title if one them sweeps!


**Update! The Bay City All Saints swept the Bad Axe Hatchets to take the outright Greater Thumb West Title in boys high school baseball action. The All Saints needed to win both games in order to take the league title and avoid coming back to the Lakers to finish up a tied game that was played earlier in the season.

Friday Blows In A Saturday Weekend Of Tournments

Well the rain fall came and dump on the vast thumb area making it a sloppy wet muddy mess on most of the ball fields preventing some great and implicating title games from taking place. No word on when these vast Thursday make up games will be.
Thumb Tailgater Sports was to cover with a live internet video webcast of the Bad Axe at Vassar baseball game on Thursday that ultimately got canceled. We are trying to decide what game to cover on Monday to make up for that cancellation. Monday games have plenty of intrigue in the Greater Thumb West for baseball & softball titles. So we hope to have a decision come late Friday.
Just a few games that were scheduled for Friday. Saturday has much Tournament action for many Thumb & Blue Water area teams.

Friday Games:
Memphis (NCTL 14-0, Overall 19-4) @ Genesee Christian - (Baseball)
Lutheran North @ Richmond (Baseball)
Richmond @ Owosso (Softball)
Clintondale @ Armada (Softball)
Harbor Beach @ Sandusky (Make up game: Softball & Baseball)

*The Memphis Yellowjackets against North Huron Warriors ball games have been moved to May 24th.

Thursday Title Implications & Webcast - Rained Out!

Thumb Tailgater Sports is on the road at Vassar for a live internet webcast of high school baseball. It will feature the Bad Axe Hatchets at the Vassar Vulcans, in a game that has major implications for the Greater Thumb West title. Coverage starts live at 4pm. 
Another game of note, is girls softball in the Greater Thumb East. Brown City Lady Greendevils needs to take both games against the undefeated Mayville Lady Wildcats in order to hope for at least a share of the title. Other major games of interest include the Reese Lady Rockets at the EPBP Lady Lakers and the Cass City Lady Redhawks at the USA Lady Patriots.

**The weather forecast is calling for a 80% chance of rain showers so there is a strong chance that the thumb area games could be called off due to the weather.**

Tuesday BWAC Action - RAINED OUT!!

The Thumb & Blue Water Area teams have a furious last two weeks of regular league season play with titles still up for grabs! 
This Thursday, May 13th - in high school baseball, the Bad Axe Hatchets have a huge doubleheader at the Vassar Vulcans. Vassar have been known to be the spoilers in virtually all of the major sports in high school since joining the Greater Thumb West when it comes to the league title. Can the Vulcans play that pivotal role in Bad Axe's quest for the GTW baseball title? With the Hatchets splitting their doubleheader against Unionville-Sebewaing it could be another nail biter to the final showdown with the All Saints on Monday, May 17th. The Bay City All Saints played their doubleheader against the Lakers and took the first game but the night cap was called due to darkness and the game ended in a tie. That game may have to be played out at a later time if the title is not decided by the end of the regular scheduled league season. The "Wild West" of the thumb in the GTC not only happens in football and basketball but now also in baseball!
If you are not able to make the trek to Vassar - log onto Thumb Tailgater for all the live baseball play by play!! Coverage starts at 3:45pm.


There is also major implications in the Blue Water Area Conference. Plenty of games to be played till the end of May!

Demott Chooses Hillsdale

Sandusky girls basketball player Marissa Demott is moving on to play college basketball at Hillsdale College. Demott was the Thumb Sportswriters Association Co-Player of Year along with Defensive Player, and making an unprecedented four straight years on the 1st team. She was also the Associated Press Michigan's Class C Player Of The Year and made the AP Class C First Team.

During her senior season, DeMott averaged 22 points, six steals, five rebounds, three assists and nearly two blocks a game. DeMott, a 5-foot-9 senior guard, connected on all 36 of her free-throw attempts in the fourth quarter this season for the 21-2 Redskins, who were ranked No. 1 much of the season.

Marissa DeMott set a Michigan High School Athletic Association state record at the beginning of the season with 55 consecutive free throws, making her first 34 attempts after hitting 21 straight at the end of last season. That total ranks third nationally.

For her career, DeMott was 429-for-488 (87.9 percent) from the foul line.
In addition to her free-throw shooting, DeMott scored 1,682 points and hit 191 three-pointers in her career. Sandusky finished the season 21-2 overall after losing to rival Brown City in the district finals.
