GRAYLING The Grayling
boys varsity basketball team

suffered just its second loss
of the 2012-13 season, as
Gaylord rallied for a 51-49
victory in a non-conference
game between the two
neighboring rivals Monday,
Jan. 14.
The host Vikings (5-2 over-
all) held the advantage on the
score board for the first for
three quarters of the game,
holding onto a 39-36 lead at
the start of the final stanza.
But the visiting Blue Devils
(1-8 overall) used a 15-point
outburst to head back home
with their first win of the
year, as the Vikings only
managed 10 fourth-quarter
points.
I thought our team com-
peted hard in the contest,
said Vikings head coach Rich
Moffit. On the positive side,
we forced Gaylord into 28
turnovers and only commit-
ted 14. We shot the ball 25
more times from the field
than Gaylord. We made seven
more field goals than
Gaylord.
On the negative side, we
were outshot from the free
throw line, 29-7, the coach
added. Our inability to get to
the free-throw line was a
huge issue for our team. We
also missed a number of
inside shots.
Gaylord coach Tim
ORourke liked the way his
players, hungry for their first
win, battled back twice from
large deficits and showed
trust in each other at crucial
points in the game.
It was a gratifying and sat-
isfying win in a hostile envi-
ronment for the Blue Devils,
who had come close before
but were always denied the
W.
Grayling had the early
momentum, outscoring the
visiting Blue Devils by seven
points, 21-14, in the first
quarter. But Gaylord started
chipping away at the Vikings
lead and trailed by just four
points, 32-28, at intermis-
sion.
Strong-armed senior cen-
ter Zach Lundell played
under the window with lethal
efficiency for Gaylord, con-
trolling play much of the
time and delivering a game-
high 24 points. Senior guard
Tyler Frisch found the net
three times from beyond the
arc, hitting for 18 points to
help the Blue Devil cause.
ORourke also commend-
ed the unselfish, high-octane
play of Tyler Cherry, Cam
Taylor and Chris Stout and
the contributions of the
reserves. Zach Pasternak
came off the bench to draw a
charging foul at a crucial
juncture.
It was a total team effort,
ORourke said.
Junior guard-forward Jake
Swander paced Grayling with
an impressive all-round per-
formance of 19 points, 7
rebounds, 3 steals, 1 assist
and 1 blocked shot. But, he
was just one of two Vikings to
score in double-digits.
The other was fellow junior
Justice Junttila, who tallied
10 points, 3 boards, 2 steals, 1
assist and 1 block in Monday
nights loss.
Other contributors for
Grayling included: Tyler
McClanahan with 8 points, 7
steals and 4 assists; Michael
Branch with 6 points, 8
rebounds and 3 steals; Scott
Parkinson with 5 points, 4
boards, 3 steals, 1 assist and 1
blocked shot; Wes Dean with
1 point; and Carson
Burmeister with 1 steal and 1
blocked shot.
TCSF 80
Grayling 60
In a battle of unbeaten
Lake Michigan Conference
teams, the host Vikings
ended up the first to have a
loss, as they were dominated,
80-60, by the visiting Traverse
City St. Francis Gladiators (8-
0 overall) on Tuesday, Jan. 8.
The Gladiators outscored
Grayling in every quarter,
including a 19-13 opening
stanza. Traverse City led at
the half, 40-29.
We struggled versus the
(Gladiators) pressure in this
game, Moffit said. Traverse
City forced us into 29
turnovers and we struggled
physically on the boards.
We played well at times
tonight, but did not put
together a consistent effort at
both ends of the court, he
added. Our kids will
regroup.
While falling short on the
scoreboard, four Vikings had
posted double digits in the
scorebook. Junttila led the
way with 13 points, 4
rebounds and 1 steal, and
Parkinson chipped in 12
points, 3 rebounds, 3 steals, 1
assist and 1 block.
Swander added 11 points,
4 boards and 1 steal, with
McClanahan hitting for 10
points, 3 rebounds, 2 steals
and 2 assists in the loss.
Other contributors for the
Vikings included: Dean with
5 points, 2 rebounds, 1 steal,
1 assist and 1 blocked shot;
Branch with 4 points;
Burmeister with 2 points, 1
steal and 1 assist; Scott
Wakeley with 2 points and 1
board; Richie Sanford with 1
point and 2 rebounds; Peyton
Zigila with 1 steal; and Matt
Burrell with 1 rebound.

MACKINAW CITY The
Mackinaw City girls won
their biggest game of the sea-
son to date, outscoring visit-
ing Boyne Falls 67-53 on
Friday to secure the top spot
in the Northern Lakes
Conference standings.
The Comets and the
Loggers both came into the
game unbeaten in league
play. After the victory, Mack
City pushed its record to 8-2
overall and 5-0 in the NLC
and Boyne Falls slipped to 7-
3 and 4-1.
The potent 1-2 punch of
All-State senior guard
Courtney Wallis and fellow
senior Claudia Alexander
provided most of the serious
POP for the Comet offense.
Courtney, who appears to
be well on her way to another
All-State season, showed up
big once again, making the
twine twitch to the tune of 25
points and she also pulled
down eight rebounds.
Alexander was Great, too.
Claudia generated a double-
double, connecting for 16
points and cleaning the glass
like Windex, grabbing 12
rebounds. Claudia also cov-
ered Boyne Falls big girl
Raegen Pedigo like snow on
an evergreen, limiting the
high-scoring Pedigo to nine
points in the game.
The Comets controlled
play from the outset, taking a
25-18 lead after one quarter
and a 46-31 lead at the half.
Feisty freshman guard
Chelsey Closs also helped the
Comet cause, collecting 12
points to join Courtney and
Claudia in double figures.
Another talented underclass-
man, long-armed sopho-
more Lauren Bell, rang up
eight points and brought
down 12 rebounds.
Boyne Falls junior forward
Emily Matelski kept the
Loggers within striking dis-
tance with her tough play.
She scored 20 points to lead
the visitors and junior Casey
Matelski made 14.
ON WEDNESDAY, Jan. 9,
the Comets prevailed at the
court of league foe Ellsworth
by a 67-50 margin.
Wallis put her usual Whack
into the attack, spinning the
nets for 25 points to go with
seven rebounds, seven
assists and seven steals.
Alexander was locked in like
a laser, launching 20 points
to help the Comet cause and
Lauren Bell chimed in with
10 points.
The Comets narrowly won
the JV game 37-36 as Lilly
Alexander turned in a flowery
performance, finding the
bottom of the net for a game-
high 18 points.
Mack City plays again on
Thursday, Jan. 17, when non-
league foe Engadine makes
the trip south.

TRAVERSE CITY The
Gaylord girls slugged, fought
and battled for 32 hard min-
utes at the court of Big North
foe Traverse City West on
Friday night. In the end,
though, it was the host Titans
pulling out a hard-fought 46-
39 win in a physical contest.
Senior sharpshooter
Mackenzie Edwards rocked
the iron big time for the Blue
Devils in the tough defeat,
taming the twine to the tune
of 20 points. The lethal lefty
hasnt lost her touch even
though she was sidelined for
several weeks with a wrist
injury.
Sparkplug senior guard
Sarah Polena produced five
points and four assists in the
hard-fought road win. Senior
forward Chelsea Fox fired in
five and pulled down seven
rebounds and Maddie
Hamilla hit for four with six
boards.
We didnt get off to a good
start and had to play from
behind, reported Blue Devil
coach Frank Hamilla. We
had our opportunities at the
end. We cut the lead to two
with two minutes left but
werent able to convert. Were
looking forward to the
rematch in Gaylord in
February.
Sophomore Katie Placek
tallied 11 points and showed
up big inside for West, taking
down 12 rebounds. She also
recorded six assists. Paris
Wagner produced eight
points and grabbed 12
rebounds as West improved
to 3-6 overall and 3-1 in the
league.
The Gaylord JV suffered its
first loss of the season, drop-
ping a narrow 27-24 decision
to the Titans. Brandi Wagner
waxed the nets for eight
points to lead the young Blue
Devils of coach Shelly Curtis.
Sydney Kassuba corralled
eight rebounds and scored
five and Tanner Arkfield tal-
lied five also. Kari Cannon
shot eight for the winning
Titans.
ON MONDAY, Jan. 14, the
Blue Devils rebounded with a
54-32 win at Grayling.
Senior Alex Simmons
showed up strong and
showed up big in the victory,
rocking the iron for a game-
high 18 points. Mackenzie
made the net spin for 17 and
the hardworking Polena put
seven on the board and
pulled down five rebounds to
go with her stellar work on
defense as she secured a
team-high four steals.
The formidable Fox put the
find on seven rebounds and
Maddie Hamilla had six with
three steals.
ON TUESDAY, Jan. 8, the
Blue Devils hosted Big North
foe Alpena and rallied for a
solid 45-33 triumph.
Gaylord trailed 19-10 at the
half but the Blue Devils of
coach Frank Hamilla came
out blazing in the third quar-
ter and turned the game in
their favor.
Mighty Mac, seeing her
first action since the wrist
injury, got hotter than
jalapeno stew from the floor,
nailing 13 of her 16 points in
the third and fourth quarters
to fuel the comeback.
Junior guard Maddie
Hamilla, who was also side-
lined at the same time as Mac
with a hand injury, made her
return to the lineup against
Alpena and she also showed
up big in the second half.
Maddie dialed from long dis-
tance three times in the third
quarter to score nine of her
11 points as Gaylord went
from a nine-point halftime
deficit to take a 36-29 lead
into the final period.
Sure-shooting senior for-
ward Alex Simmons kept the
Blue Devils in the game early
when no one else was hitting
anything, scoring seven of
her nine points in the first
half. Since Gaylord scored
just 10 points total in the first
half, Alexs points were
HUGE.
In the second half, it was
Mac and Maddie leading the
way offensively with Alex,
Chelsea Fox and Sarah
Perpetual Motion Polena
taming the Wildcats on the
floor with ferocious defense.
Polena, who put the spit
in spitfire, was her usual
relentless self out there,
wreaking havoc with Wildcat
ball handlers. The fired-up
Fox was a fury inside, pulling
down a team-high 11
rebounds, and Simmons
continued her strong play at
both ends.
Juniors Joslyn Rider and
Lauren Hintz also con-
tributed energy and effort off
the bench.
Christina Kollien collected
nine points to lead the
Wildcats (2-5, 1-3) and
Emma Strong scored seven.
The Gaylord JV pushed to a
7-0 mark with a 44-25 win
over the Wildcats. Brandi
Wagner bruised the nets for a
game-high 18 points as eight
of nine Blue Devils scored.
Strong-armed Cierra Woods
laid the lumber down inside,
grabbing six rebounds for
coach Shelly Curtiss troops.
Gaylord, 4-5 overall and 1-
2 in the Big North, plays at
Cadillac this Friday, Jan. 18.

Blue Devil gals fall to West
By Mike Dunn
GAYLORD It was still
another case for the Gaylord
boys of coach Tim ORourke
where the Blue Devils put up
a tough fight against a quality
opponent but came up short
at the final buzzer.
On Friday, Gaylord played
host to Traverse City West
and dropped a 57-46 deci-
sion in a physically intense
battle.
Smooth senior guard Tyler
Frisch continues to put
together a solid season for
the battling, blue-collar Blue
Devils. Frisch found the bot-
tom of the net to generate a
game-high 18 points against
the Titans.
Chris Stout struck for 10
points to join Frisch in dou-
ble digits. Tyler Cherry
squeezed seven points
through the iron, including a
3-pointer, while Zach Lundell
labored and banged bodies
down low and scored five.
Cam Taylor tallied four and
Zach Pasternak put a deuce
on the board.
Kendrick Meyer connected
for 14 points to lead the
Titans and pulled down
seven rebounds. Donny
Cizek hit for 11 and Johnny
Wheelock grabbed eight
boards for the visitors.
Gaylord won the JV game
55-41.
Blue Devils traveled to the
court of Big North foe Alpena
and battled very hard in a 64-
41 defeat.
While not pleased with the
result, coach ORourke did
like the way his blue-collar
Blue Devils scrapped and
clawed for 32 minutes. The
Blue Devils were behind 37-
19 at the half but came back
in the third quarter and
outscored the home team,
eventually trimming the
deficit to just 10 points.
Cam Taylor was on target
from downtown to help fuel
the third-quarter comeback,
scoring all nine of his points
from 3-point land.
Hardworking Zach Lundell
landed eight through the iron
and also pulled down eight
boards and found open
teammates time after time,
collecting seven assists.
Frisch fired in a team-high
13 points with a typically
effective performance.
ORourke also noted the
gritty, grinding play of James
Dunn and Chris Stout, both
of whom played suffocating
defense and dove for loose
balls all over the floor.
Gaylord, 0-3 in the Big
North, plays host to league
foe Cadillac on Thursday, Jan.
17, and is home again on
Tuesday, Jan. 22, against
Petoskey.

PETOSKEY The Petoskey
girls made the most of their
make-up game with visiting
Traverse City Central on
Monday, outscoring the
Trojans decisively.
Petoskeys impressive 57-27
victory pushes its record to a
solid 8-2 overall at the
halfway point of the season
and 4-1 in the Big North.
It was the usual suspects
doing the usual damage for
the flying Northmen.
Senior Kelsey Ance, who is
putting together an All-State
caliber campaign, cracked
the iron for 22 points and
senior center Megan
Tompkins did a Wow! num-
ber on the Windex Scale,
scoring 18 and controlling
play under the glass.
Ance and Tompkins did
more than just combine for
40 points of offense, though.
Ance also generated nine
rebounds and four steals
and the 6-foot-3 Tompkins
put the tag on seven caroms
and cast a long shadow in
the paint.
Tyler Rawling tallied 10 to
lead Central, which fell to 2-
6.
ON FRIDAY, the Petoskey
girls got the best of host
Ogemaw Heights 50-27 in a
Big North clash. The
Northmen, fueled once
again by the fine play of sen-
ior wing Kelsey Ance, won
their fourth straight.
Kelsey connected for a
game-high 19 points and
Kati Lewis launched three 3-
pointers and hit for 11.
Angular senior center
Megan Tompkins tallied 10
and fellow senior Alyssa
VanWerden hit for six.
Shelby Killinger sank eight
for the host Falcons.
ON TUESDAY, Jan. 8,
Petoskey defeated T.C. West
35-17 in a slow-it-down
slugfest with the Titans, who
slipped to 2-6 overall and 2-
1 in the league.
Tompkins topped the
scoring ledger with 13 points
and she also pulled down
seven boards. Ance struck
for 12 points with nine
boards and she was big into
piracy also, recording five
steals. VanWerden waxed the
twine twice for downtown
for six points.
Petoskey also won the JV
game, 32-26, as Sarah
Yankoviak put the yank on
the twine for a team-high
eight points and also
grabbed five rebounds.
Shelby Laser locked in for
five points and locked down
on nine rebounds.
Petoskey (8-2, 4-1)
resumes Big North play on
Friday, Jan. 18, at Alpena. On
Monday, Jan. 21, the
Northmen are home against
league foe Gaylord.

JOHANNESBURG The
Johannesburg-Lewiston girls
of coach Heather Huff just
keep winning. The Cardinals,
an honorable mention pick
in Class C by the Associated
Press, pushed their record to
10-0 overall and 6-0 in the Ski
Valley with victories over
league foes Inland Lakes and
Mancelona and non-league
foe Mio.
the Cardinals traveled to
Indian River and secured a
62-48 win over the scrappy,
hustling Bulldogs.
It was a moral victory for I-
Lakes to give the visiting
Cardinals a pretty tough bat-
tle. Sweet-shooting senior
guard Sarah Kolb had an
AT&T tonight, connecting
from long distance over the
over again while scoring 19
points to lead the battling
Bulldogs. Five times Sarah
made the net dance from
downtown. She also accumu-
lated six rebounds and five
steals.
Kolbs hot hand enabled
the Bulldogs to cut J-Ls lead
to just six points in the fourth
quarter.
But junior guard Brittany
Cherwinski was cool in the
clutch for J-L. Brittany blis-
tered the twine for eight of
her game-high 20 points in
the fourth quarter to help her
team keep the hardworking
Bulldogs at arms length
down the stretch.
Long-armed senior
Hannah Huff hit for 10 points
to help the J-L cause while
versatile senior wing Abby
Schlicher struck for nine and
senior forward Katelyn
Weaver for eight.
Senior sharpshooter Sandy
Bischoff smacked the nets for
17 points to join Kolb in dou-
ble digits for I-Lakes. Bischoff
also brought down seven
rebounds and recorded
seven blocks. Senior Hannah
Passino produced five points.
ON FRIDAY, Jan. 11, the
Cardinals edged visiting
Mancelona 59-7.
Hannah Huff hammered
the iron for a dozen points to
lead the J-L scoring column
and fellow senior Abby
Schlicher busted the nets for
11 points. All 13 members of
coach Huffs squad scored in
the contest.
ON MONDAY, Jan. 14, the
Cardinals won on the road
against Mio in a pretty com-
petitive contest. J-L earned a
51-36 decision.
Acetylene Abby was on
fire for the Cardinals. Abby
stoked the nets for a game-
high 20 points and very near-
ly delivered a triple-double.
She grabbed 13 rebounds
with eight steals, four assists
and three blocks.
Long-armed freshman
Maddie Showerman
drenched the twine with 10
points to go with three steals
and three assists. Katelyn
Weaver scored eight and cor-
ralled six boards and Hailey
Weaver hauled in nine
rebounds.
J-L (10-0, 6-0) played at
home on Wednesday, Jan. 16,
against a tough Onaway
squad and travel to Pellston
on Friday, Jan. 18.
The Cardinals travel west
to take on Gaylord St. Mary
on Tuesday, Jan. 22, in the
HUGE rematch between two
of the top teams in the state.
It is also the annual Rivals
Rally for the Cure game.
State-ranked Cards stay unbeaten with wins

ing town with an impressive

Deadly Jack Korte was in

in from long distance to help
lead the Blue Devil charge.
Korte made the twine twitch
six times from 3-point land
as he scored a game-high 31
points.
Jacob King added some
Vitamin K of his own, hitting
for eight points. Jakovan
Pryor McCovery, Michael
Dipzinski and Ty Beckwith
each chipped in six to help
the cause.

MANCELONA The
Mancelona boys of coach
Rick Duerksen won back-to-
back Ski Valley Conference
games, beating previously
unbeaten Onaway and
defending league champ
Forest Area, to remain per-
fect in league play thus far.
The Ironmen outscored
Onaway 66-51 on Tuesday,
Jan. 8, and then whipped the
Warriors 55-33 on Thursday,
Jan. 10, to push their record
conference.
Sophomore sharpshooter
Brandon B-Ding Dingman
played a key role in each vic-
tory, scoring 32 in the big
win over Onaway and 23 in
the win over Forest Area.
B-Ding rang it up time
after time in the home win
over Onaway, which came
into the game with a 5-0
record and 4-0 in the Ski
Valley. The Cardinals sizzled
at the start, surging to a 9-2
advantage behind the hot
hand of Joe OBradovich.
The Ironmen rallied, how-
ever, to gain a 33-24 lead by
halftime. The Cardinals of
coach Eddy Szymoniak
came back to trim the deficit
to 45-40 entering the fourth
quarter but Mancy closed
out strong to finally claim
the well-deserved win.
Dingman was not only
dangerous from the floor, he
was also a force inside as he
hauled in 14 rebounds.
Strong-armed Brandon
Scott was a beast inside, tak-
ing in nine rebounds with
his physical play and
accounting for 14 points of
offense.
Coach Duerksen also
noted the suffocating defen-
sive pressure applied by jun-
ior guard Logan Borst.
OBradivich, who is hav-
ing a whale of a season for
the Cardinals, scored 16 and
Andrew Prow, who is poison
from the perimeter, dialed in
three times from downtown
to score nine.
IN THE WIN over Forest
Area, it was a double dose of
the Brandon Boys once
again helping the
Mancelona fortunes late in
the contest. B-Ding deliv-
ered 23 points, including 15
in the second half to help
the Ironmen break open a
close game, and Scott sup-
plied 16 points, nailing 12 of
those in the decisive fourth
quarter.
Dingman also took down
nine boards and recorded
three assists. Griffin Borst
put some of the growl into
the attack as well, generat-
ing seven points from his
guard post to go with eight
rebounds and three steals.
Austin Vance hit for 14 to
lead the Warriors.
The Ironmen (5-2, 4-0)
put their unbeaten league
mark on the line on Tuesday,
Jan. 15, at the court of
Gaylord St. Mary. On
Thursday, Jan. 17, the
Ironmen play at
Johannesburg-Lewiston and
on Tuesday, Jan. 22, they are

Back-to-back wins over SVC foes Onaway, Forest
Area keep Mancy unbeaten in league play
By Mike Dunn
boys of coach Dennis Starkey
pushed their unblemished
record to 7-0 overall and 3-0
in the Big North with back-
to-back road wins over
Traverse City West and
Ogemaw Heights.
On Tuesday, Jan. 8, the
Northmen took out the
Titans 64-57 with an impres-
sive performance and on
Friday, Jan. 11, Petoskey out-
punched the host Falcons 57-
48.
In the win at T.C. West, it
was long-armed Erik
Davenport delivering the
goods big time as he generat-
ed 28 points, including 19 in
the second half, to help
Petoskey gain the win and
reverse a loss at the court of
the Titans a year ago.
With the wins over West
and Ogemaw, Petoskey has
come out on top in 33 of its
last 34 Big North games, with
the one defeat coming at the
hands of the Titans.
West (6-3, 4-1) didnt make
it easy on the Northmen. The
Titans closed the gap to 59-
55 with 32 seconds left to
play but the determined
Davenport stood tall down
the stretch, knocking down
5-of-6 free throw attempts.
Petoskey helped its cause
at the charity stripe through-
out the game, connecting on
17-of-28. In the fourth quar-
ter, the Northmen made 11-
of-16.
Davenport pulled down
five boards to go with his 28
points. Joe LeBlanc was
LeBull from LeFloor, finding
the bottom of the net for 13.
Sweet-shooting Sam
Baumgartner, who drew
Titan defenders like magnets,
scored nine and was a force
inside, grabbing 10
rebounds.
The Titans Jeremiah
Williams was no bull frog in
this one. He didnt croak
under pressure, but tripped
the twine for 15 points. Zach
McGuire made 11 and
Kendrick Meyer hit for 10.
Petoskey also won the JV
contest 45-35 as Evan
Whitmore waxed the nets for
18 points.
In the freshmen game,
Jared Roth rode the iron for
nine points to help Petoskey
secure a 44-34 decision. Sam
Fyfe drummed up seven
points.
ON FRIDAY in the win at
Ogemaw, it was Baumgartner
blasting out 15 points to pace
a balanced scoring assault.
Davenport drilled 13 points
while slick senior guard
Quinn Ameel and LeBlanc
each accounted for 12 points.
It was another game where
the home team pulled close
in the fourth quarter before
the Northmen clinched
things with strong play down
the stretch. In this case, the
fighting Falcons (2-4, 0-4) cut
the lead to 49-43 with three
minutes left before the
Northmen finally clipped
their wings.
Petoskey played host to
Charlevoix on Tuesday, Jan.
15, after this issue went to
press. It was the annual
White Ribbon game, a time
set aside for men to make a
personal commitment to
ending violence against
women and girls by promot-
ing respect, dignity and
equality.
On Friday, Jan. 18, the
Northmen are home against
Alpena and on Tuesday, Jan.
22, they play at Gaylord.

at the court of Northern

Harbor Light Christian on
Thursday, Jan. 10, but the
Vikings were not able to gain
their first win of the season.
Host Harbor Light, behind
the lights-out shooting of
Shelby Donovan and the fine
play of Annie Fila, posted a
51-39 victory. The Lady
Swordsmen improved to 2-5
overall and 2-3 in the confer-
ence while the game Vikings
slipped to 0-8 and 0-4.
Shelby struck for 23 points
to lead her team and Fila
fired in 13 to join Donovan in

Long-armed Destiny
Wiertalla stood tall for the
visitors, battling hard from
start to finish while securing
10 points and 11 rebounds
for a hard-earned double-
double. Teammate Tori
Wolford was also a physical
presence in the paint, pulling
down 10 rebounds.
Harbor Light broke open a
close game in the third quar-
ter as Donovan and Fila heat-
ed up and the defensive pres-
sure of the Swordsmen led to
untimely turnovers for

Onaway returns to W column
By Mike Dunn
PELLSTON The Onaway
boys of coach Eddy
Szymoniak rebounded
quickly from the loss at
Mancelona in the previous
outing, earning an 80-57
decision over host Pellston
on Friday.
The Cardinals improved to
6-1 overall and 5-1 in the
league while the scrappy
Hornets of coach Cliff Hass
slipped to 1-6 and 1-4.
Junior Chris Cave Man
Cleaver was in Neanderthal
Mode once again, connect-
ing for 17 points to lead a bal-
anced scoring sheet for
Onaway in the win. Five
Cardinals in all reached dou-
ble digits in the win as Rich
Hoff also hit for 13 points
while Joe OBradovich busted
the twine for 11 points and
Carlos Bautista and Andrew
Perry each put in 10.
Senior guard Jake
Friedenstab had a big night
for the host Hornets, firing in
a game-high 21 points, and
Tanner Kong Keller con-
tributed a double-double,
hitting for 12 points and
grabbing 10 rebounds.
Coach Hass pointed to
Onaways balanced scoring
as a killer for his team.
Even with OBradovich
and Bautista fouling out with
five minutes left, Onaway still
scored 29 points in the fourth
quarter, he said. "We didn't
have a good night from the
foul line (hitting just 15-of-
34). Usually when you shoot
like that, it results in a loss.
Cardinals suffered their first
loss of the season, falling at
Mancelona 66-51. Onaway
climbed back into con-
tention with a strong third
quarter but the Ironmen,
who improved to 4-0 in
league play, finished strong.
OBradovich put in 16 to
pace the Cardinals and junior
Andrew Prow dialed in three
times for downtown to score
nine.
ALSO ON TUESDAY,
Pellston played hard but
dropped a 69-58 decision to
SVC foe Central Lake.
Friedenstab, who is having
a strong season for the strug-
gling Hornets, tossed in 27
points in the defeat and
recorded five steals. Austin
Hamlin hit for 14 and David
Andress for eight.
Lack of defensive
rebounding created multiple
opportunities for Central
Lake, Coach Hass said.
Will Brockman (27) and
Max Sexton (23) led the way
for the victorious Trojans.
Onaway (6-1, 5-1) played

Rogers City 24
ROGERS CITY
Cheboygan pushed its record
Straits Area with a tense
thriller on Friday, outscoring
host Rogers City 63-24.
The deep, hustling Chiefs
put the LOCK on lock-down
defense in the game, permit-
ting the scrappy-but-out-
manned Hurons very few
uncontested shots.
At the other end of the
floor, the Chiefs took turns
lighting up the scoreboard.
Three Chiefs reached double
digits in the win. Smooth-
striding senior Andrew Dixon
delivered 15 points to lead a
balanced scoring ledger.
Fellow senior Damon Proctor
produced 10 points from the
backcourt and shifty junior
forward Ben Petroleum
Pearson lubricated the nets
for 10 points and also pulled
down 11 boards for a double-
double.
Proctor put the P in All-
Purpose, recording five
steals, five assists and five
rebounds in addition to his
10 points.
Also helping the cause
were Jake Schott, who
secured seven points and
seven boards, Jordan
Fontaine, who poured in six
points and dished off four
assists, and long-armed Luke
Harrington, who latched
onto seven rebounds with
three steals and four points.
Cheboygan edged the
Hurons 67-28 in the JV con-
test as Zack Socha struck for
13 points and Brady Hiller hit
for a dozen.

like the top-tier team it is on
the home floor on Thursday,
Jan. 10, securing an impres-
sive 71-40 victory over the
game, scrappy Snowbirds of
St. Mary.
Bellaire improved to 5-0
overall and 3-0 in the league
with the big win.
Junior forward Charles
Strehl struck for 14 to lead
the Snowbirds of coach Ken
Blust and strong-armed sen-
ior forward Nick Lochinski
landed 10 through the iron.
Tyler Thornton had a big
night for the host Eagles,
making the net dance time
after time from 3-point land.
He had nine connections
from beyond the arc and
scored 27 points. Mitch
Teetzel and Drew Bailey were
also poison from the perime-
ter in the Eagle attack, scor-
ing 19 points apiece.
St. Mary (4-3, 2-3) faced
another unbeaten league foe
in Mancelona on Tuesday,
Jan. 15, after this issue went

Mio 59
Fairview 25
MIO The host
Thunderbolts remained
unbeaten with a workman-
like 59-25 victory over visit-
ing North Star League foe
Fairview on Thursday, Jan.
10.
Mio, which improved to 7-
0 overall and 6-0 in the
league, outscored the visitors
16-1 in the second quarter to
break things wide open.
Micah Thomey made the
twine twitch to the tune of 14
points to pace a balanced
scoring ledger on this night.
When Micah wasnt putting it
through the iron, he was
passing to an open teammate
for two points. He finished
with six assists.
Bryce Degrammott added
some growl to the
Thunderbolt assault, adding
11 points and pulling down
seven rebounds. Aaron
Georgieff and Dennis Kann
III each hauled in six
rebounds.
Kasson Willobee scored 11
to lead Fairview.
Mio put its unbeaten
record on the line again
against visiting Tawas on
Tuesday, Jan. 15, after this

Central Lake 40
JOHANNESBURG The
Johannesburg-Lewiston boys
of coach Troy Huff prevailed
on the home floor on
Thursday, Jan. 10, beating Ski
Valley rival Central Lake 54-
40. The Cardinals improved
league with the impressive
win while the Trojans slipped
to 2-5 and 1-5.
It was a strong team effort
for the Cards, who put three
in double-digit scoring.
Hardworking Jake Newell put
some of the Jolt into the
assault with his 11 points.
Coalton Huff hammered
home 11 points as well and
Cam Nickert came through
with 10 points. Senior Cole
Nagy helped the cause, too,
canning eight points.
Point guard Logan Huff
was a two-way force, record-
ing nine assists and leading
the way defensively with five
steals. Wyatt Pellton pro-
duced some timely free
throws and played with pur-
pose and passion in the
paint, as usual.
The Cardinals played at
Inland Lakes on Tuesday, Jan.
15.
Boyne City 56
Inland Lakes 35
INDIAN RIVER It was a
tough night for host Inland
Lakes on Thursday, Jan. 10, as
high-powered Boyne City
came to town. Super sopho-
more Corey Redman racked
up 23 points for the visiting
Ramblers, who improved to
3-5 overall in the non-league
tilt, and Brad Fouchia found
the bottom of the net for 13.
Cody Bonilla bounced
seven points through the
hole and Todd Athey added
seven as well to lead the
hardworking Bulldogs, who
had difficulty keeping up in
the scoring department but
battled hard for 32 minutes.
Dakotah Davedowski drilled
six through the iron.
After falling behind 15-4 in
the first quarter, the winless
Bulldogs battled back to pull
within eight points, 25-17, at
the half. It was a confidence
builder for the blue-collar
Bulldogs, who focused on
keeping the 6-foot-6 Redman
from completely dominating
play and held him to just six
points in the first two quar-
ters.
I-Lakes (0-6) played host to
Johannesburg- Lewi st on
Tuesday, Jan. 15, after this

NMCA 75
Alanson 48
BURT LAKE Kody
Wicker had a big night for the
visiting Alanson Vikings but
it wasnt nearly enough to
offset the onslaught of buck-
ets and points of host
Northern Michigan Christian
Academy in non-league
action on Thursday, Jan. 10.
Wicker lit it up for 27
points and pulled down 10
rebounds for a double-dou-
ble for the Vikings, who
slipped to 1-4 overall.
Aaron Chatfield chewed up
the twine for a game-high 37
points and he generated a
rare triple-double, recording
10 assists and 10 rebounds to
go with his scoring totals.
Robert Taylor tallied 19
points with 12 boards for the
victors and Jake Lovitt
launched nine.
Zack Keller zoned in for 16
points and was a Windex
Wonder down low, cleaning
the glass for a whopping 19
rebounds as the Alanson JV
won 64-14. Brennan Peters
and Jake Ohm each hit for 10
for the young Vikings.

Mackinaw City 25
BOYNE FALLS Visiting
Mackinaw City put up a
game effort but Boyne Falls
had too much of too many
things in a Northern Lakes
Conference clash on
Thursday, Jan. 10.
Junior Noah Morse led the
Comets of coach Garth Law
with 12 points and Matt
Rivera scored eight. The
Comets slipped to 4-2 overall
and 2-1 in the conference
with the loss.
Freshman phenom Marcus
Matelski made the iron rattle
to the tune of 35 big points as
the Loggers improved to 5-1
and stayed perfect at 3-0 in
league play.
TRAVERSE CITY The
Grayling girls varsity basket-
ball team struggled on the
road, falling to host Traverse
City St. Francis, 70-30, on
Wednesday, Jan. 9, in a Lake
Michigan Conference clash.
The visiting Lady Vikings
(5-4 overall, 1-3 conference)
never scored in double fig-
ures in any of the four quar-
ters of play.
St. Francis is always a
tough place to play and my
teams have never shot the
ball well over there, said
Grayling head coach Joe
Powers. It is a definite home
court advantage.
We have to give a lot of
credit to their girls as they
played very well and were the
better team that night, he
added.
The host Gladiators
jumped out to a 24-8 lead
after the first quarter and
never looked back.
They shot the ball
extremely well, shooting a
scorching 51 percent from
the field, Powers said.
Traverse City has a very
good team, with very nice
size across the board. We did
not have someone to match
up with their 6-3 girls, which
caused us problems on both
ends of the floor.
However, their overall
athleticism caused us the
most grief. Our Grayling girls
played proudly but we didn't
have enough on Wednesday
night to match up with
them.
But, there were some high-
lights for the Lady Vikes.
Senior forward Maddie
Benardo hit 4-of-5 shots on
her way to a solid, all-round
performance of 9 points, 3
rebounds and two blocked
shots. And, sophomore
Hailey Whittaker guard bat-
tled her way to post a line of 7
points, 4 steals, 2 assists and
1 blocked shot against the
Gladiators.
Other contributors for
Grayling included: Samantha
Denno with 6 points, 5
rebounds and 1 steal; Caitlin
Prosser with 3 points, 4
boards, 1 steal and 1 assist;
Hannah Haven with 3 points
and 1 rebound; Alyssa Morley
with 2 points, 3 rebounds, 2
steals and 2 assists; Makayla
Cragg with 3 boards and 1
assist; Tandy Mitchell with 1
steal and 1 assist; and Rachel
Money with 1 assist.
Grayling 70, Houghton
Lake 54
Grayling raced out to an
early lead over Houghton
Lake on Monday, Jan. 7, and
then held on for a hard-
fought 70-54 in a non-con-
ference matchup.
The Lady Vikes outgunned
the host Bobcats by six
points, 15-9, in the opening
stanza and opened up a 31-
19 lead at the half.
The game against
Houghton Lake was a very
fast paced game, Powers
said. Everyone on our team
played and contributed the
entire game.
We need to give
Houghton Lake a lot of cred-
it, as their girls did not quit
and played the entire game.
Denno, Graylings sopho-
more forward, made her
presence known on both
ends of the floor, leading the
Vikings with 14 points, 7
blocked shots, 6 rebounds
and 2 steals.
And, she had plenty of help
from her teammates, with
Benardo chipping in 11
points, a team-high 9
rebounds, 7 steals, 5 assists
and 3 blocks. Whitaker and
Caitlin Prosser each added 9
points in the win. Whittaker
also tallied 7 steals, 3 assists,
2 rebounds and 1 blocked
shot for Grayling, while
Prosser handed out a team-
high 6 assists to go with 6
boards and 2 steals.
Other contributors for the
Vikings included: Morley
assists and 1 steal; Haven
steals and 2 assists; Cierra
Prosser with 6 points, 3 steals
and 1 rebound; Cragg with 2
points, 4 rebounds and 1
blocked shot; Money with 2

LOCAL SPORTS
By Doug Derrer
TRAVERSE CITY -- On
Wednesday, Jan. 9, the Bay
Area Reps traveled to Griffin
Arena in Petoskey to take on
the Northmen, the newest
member of the Northern
Michigan Hockey League.
Trailing 2-0 after one peri-
od, Travis Kirk scored a
power play goal with 9:40
left in the second period to
get the Reps within a goal of
the Northmen. Trevor Apsey
and Zach Hill assisted on
Kirks goal.
Petoskey responded with
some firepower, however,
scoring two more goals in
the final 5 minutes of the
period to lead 4-1 after two
periods. Petoskey added its
second short-handed goal of
the night with 10:19 left in
the contest to take a 5-1 lead
over the Reps.
But 15 seconds later a
Gavin Uitvlugt power goal,
with assists to Nitro Nick
Sicinski and Nate Wild
Man Wilson, seemed to
bring the Reps to life. Wilson
added some more octane to
the attack a short time later,
drilling a power play goal
with 5:561 left in the period
off another assist from the
ubiquitous Sicinski, then
with 2:31 to go the Wild Man
struck again to get the Reps
within a goal. John
VanRaalte assisted on
Wilsons second goal.
The Reps pulled their
goalie for an extra attacker
during the last minute but
came up short in their
attempt to score the tying
goal, losing to the Northmen
in a thriller, 5-4.
The Reps hosted Alpena
from the Big North
Conference on Saturday,
Jan. 12, hoping to recover
from their disappointing
loss to Petoskey in their pre-
vious contest. Playing prob-
ably their best opening peri-
od of the year, the Reps used
power play goals by Apsey
and Sicinski to take a 2-0
advantage after the opening
period.
But Alpena responded by
scoring the only three goals
of the second period to lead
3-2 heading into the second
intermission of the seesaw
battle.
The Reps rallied big time
and dominated play in the
third period, but they
seemed destined for their
second straight one-goal
defeat until Wilson wildly
brought the crowd to its feet
when he hammered in a
rebound with one second
left on the clock to force
overtime.
Three minutes into over-
time Chase Joppich came
through in the clutch. Chase
picked up a loose puck at the
blue line and slipped a siz-
zling shot past the sprawling
Wildcat goalie to give the
Reps an exciting 4-3 over-
time win over their Big
North foe.
Cool Claire Huhta
improved her record to 3-0
by stopping 16 of the 19
shots she faced in net for the
Reps.
Next up for the Reps is a
battle with Cheboygan in
Kalkaska on Wednesday,
January 16, before hosting
the Mid-Michigan Storm on
Friday, Jan. 18, and Petoskey
on Saturday, Jan. 19, at

Basketball
St. Mary girls take league games
By Mike Dunn
GAYLORD The St. Mary
girls of coach Dan Smith
surged to an 8-2 mark with
lock-down victories over vis-
iting Harbor Springs on
Tuesday, Jan. 8, and Ski Valley
foe Mancelona on
Wednesday, Jan. 9.
The suffocating Snowbird
defense controlled the play
in both games as St. Mary
posted a 57-28 decision over
the Rams and a 65-14 victory
over the Lady Ironmen.
St. Marys surround-sound,
smothering defense led to
points at the other end off
the transition in both games.
Shifty senior guard Chrissy
Smith put the smack on the
twine to the tune of 17 points
to lead all scorers in the win
over Harbor Springs and the
captain also put the hurt on
Ram ball handlers, generat-
ing six steals.
Junior guard Kari Borowiak
blistered the twine for 11
points to join Smith in dou-
ble figures and senior Sarah
Long struck for 10 and was
strong inside.
ON WEDNESDAY in the
win over Mancelona it was
Borowiak bringing it big
time, busting the nets for a
game-high 22 points.
Freshman Bekah Myler made
the twine dance to the tune
of 12 points while slick senior
Chrissy Smith struck for
seven points and continued
to her Blackbeard thing on
defense, making six more
steals. Chrissy also served
more sweet deliveries than a
florist, recording 10 assists.
Jada Bebble also helped
the Snowbird cause, cracking
the iron for six points and
pulling down six rebounds.
St. Mary played at Central
Lake on Wednesday, Jan. 16
and on Friday, Jan. 18, the
Snowbirds travel to Fife Lake
to take on Forest Area.

CHEBOYGAN The
Cheboygan girls of coach
Jason Purcell won a real
thriller on the home floor
Monday, breaking a tie in the
final seconds to secure a
hard-fought 54-52 victory
over Charlevoix in non-
league action.
Senior point guard Caitlin
McNiel came through big
time with the game on the
line, driving to the hole on a
designed play and launching
one above a pair of well-posi-
tioned Rayder defenders just
before the buzzer to avert
overtime give her team the
win.
Caitlins timely bucket
came just after Charlevoix
rallied to tie the score at 52
and overtime seemed immi-
nent.
Caitlin fueled Cheboygans
offense throughout the deci-
sive fourth quarter, scoring
all 11 of her points as the
Chiefs rallied from a 37-35
deficit to outscore the visi-
tors 19-15 over the final eight
minutes.
The Chiefs improved to 7-3
with the dramatic win and
Charlevoix, which plays a
very tough schedule, slipped
to 3-5.
Junior forward Holly
Socolovitch also had a big
night for the Chiefs, socking
the net for a game-high 24
points and cleaning the glass
with lethal efficiency, bang-
ing bodies down inside and
pulling down nine rebounds.
Senior Mariah Rozek
rocked the iron for seven
points to go with six assists
and six boards and slick
sophomore Brooke Hancock
pulled the trigger on six
points and treated her team-
mates to some sweet deliver-
ies, racking up six assists as
well.
Madeline Voss hit for 20 to
lead the visitors.
The Cheboygan JV
improved to 7-3 at the mid-
way point of the campaign
with a real nail-biter, narrow-
ly edging Charlevoix 56-14.
Kaitlin Dobrowolski deliv-
ered nine points to help lead
the way and Hannah Hudak
added some Vitamin H to the
attack, also hitting for nine
points. Ashley Hemenstall
installed eight points
through the iron and covered
the floor like wall-to-wall car-
peting on defense, securing
seven steals. Brigid Kane col-
lected seven points.
Chiefs played host to Straits
Area Conference foe Rogers
City and outscored the
Hurons 39-37 in a game
dominated by physical play
and strong defense at both
ends.
Scrappy sophomore guard
Brooke Hancock led the way
for the Chiefs, racking up 11
points and covering the floor
like carpeting on defense,
recording six steals. Senior
Mariah Rozek also helped the
cause, rocking the iron for
seven points with four assists
and strong-armed senior
Sam Buhr busted the nets for
six points and was a fear-
some force inside, pulling
down eight rebounds. Macey
Charboneau sank four with
five rebounds.
The Chiefs also won the JV
game 34-15 as Ashley
Hempenstall struck for nine
points and Autumn Hudak
hammered home seven.

girls of coach Marty Mix won
their seventh straight on
Monday, taking care of busi-
ness in a big way against
g a me - b ut - o ut ma nne d
Wolverine on the home floor.
The Cardinals efficient 52-14
victory pushed their record
to 9-2 overall.
Junior forward Mariah
Ehrke was perky on the floor,
invigorating the Cardinal
attack with her straight
shooting and strong
rebounding. Mariah made 10
points and grabbed 10
boards for a double-double.
Erika Price helped punch
the ticket to success as well,
securing 10 points, and
Ashley LeCureux was LeCool
from LeFloor, landing 10
points through the iron.
"It was a real nice effort
from all the girls, reported
Onaway coach Marty Mix
said. "We're working on a
new offense and we were
able to work on five or six dif-
ferent sets tonight."
Cardinals played at Bellaire
and rallied in the fourth
quarter to post a 41-34 deci-
sion.
Ehrke wasnt jerky with her
shooting when it counted the
most as she hit for a team-
high eight points.
the Cardinals were on the
road against Forest Area and
earned a 65-41 victory. Ehrke
played a pivotal role once
again, generating a double-
double with 16 points and 12
boards.
Senior sharpshooter Kallie
Shimel struck for 19 points to
help the cause and the Brick
Mouse, senior guard Emmy
Estep, tallied 13 and was a
fearsome force on defense,
covering the floor like a fresh
coat of wax as she recorded a
whopping nine steals.
Allie Schuster scored eight
to pace the Warriors.
Onaway, which is 6-2 in the
Ski Valley, traveled to
Johannesburg-Lewiston on

clash on Friday, Jan. 11.

dominated play inside, haul-
ing down 15 rebounds as the
Lancers improved to 4-4
overall and 3-1 in the confer-
ence. Kari Steenwyk added
13 points and pulled down 16
boards for the victors.
The Wildcats fell to 3-5 and
1-4.

GAYLORD The effort is
there but not the scoring
punch. The young Gaylord
Blue Devils battled hard in
their back-to-back home
games with downstate foes
Bay Area Thunder and
Gabriel Richard of Ann
Arbor over the weekend but
could not generate enough
goals and suffered narrow
defeats.
On Friday, the Blue Devils
were struck by the Thunder
4-1 and on Saturday the Blue
Devils lost 3-1 to Gabriel
Richard.
Gaylord and the Thunder
were scoreless in the first
period before the visitors
took a 2-0 advantage in the
second period.
Scrap-iron tough Seth
Muzyl cut the lead in half,
though, with a whistling
goal midway through, light-
ing the lamp for the fifth
time this season after con-
verting a pretty feed from
Cam Laug. Hardworking
Jackson Deans earned his
first point this season with
an assist on the goal.
That was all the offense
Gaylord could generate in
the contest, however. The
Blue Devils recorded 24
shots on goal but Thunder
net minder Connor Spence
turned away 23 of them.
Gaylord goalie Peter
Lawton kept his team in
contention to the final min-
utes, stopping 25 of 28 shots
directed at him. The
Thunder clinched the win
with an empty-net goal after
Lawton was pulled with 1:31
remaining.
ON SATURDAY, it was
Gabriel Richard getting the
early edge on the scoreboard
with a pair of first-period
goals.
Gaylord scored its lone
goal in the opening period
as well when tenacious
Trevor Raymond rocketed
one home with help from
Wham-Bam Sam Black
and Garrett Richardson.
Unfortunately, the bat-
tling Blue Devils were not
able to bruise the twine a
second time in the contest.
Gabriel goalie Ryan Baron
turned in a strong effort,
stopping 32 of 33 Gaylord
shots in the match. Lawton
also played well enough to
win once again, stopping 23
of 26 shots and keeping the
Blue Devils within striking
distance to the end. Lawton
kept the visitors off the
scoreboard on three power
plays.
The Blue Devils are home
Wednesday, Jan. 16, against
Big North foe Traverse City
Central. On Friday, Jan. 18,
they play at T.C. West in the
makeup game from the one
that was postponed by snow
in December and on
Saturday, Jan. 19, at 1 p.m.
they are on the road against
T.C. Central.

hockey team kept its nose
above the .500 mark this sea-
son with a narrow victory
over the visiting Bay Area
Thunder on Saturday. The
Northmen improved to 8-7
with the hard-fought 4-3 vic-
tory as they rebounded from
a defeat at the hands of Big
North foe Alpena the day
before.
Petoskeys Skye Pilot,
super-slick senior forward
Skye Pieffer, allowed the
Northmen to fly above the
Thunder as he produced the
game-winner with a
whistling wrist shot in the
final 90 seconds of regula-
tion.
Skye took a perfect feed
from Tanner Davis and made
the twine dance in the back
of the net with his sizzling
shot, setting off a sponta-
neous celebration among
the joyous Petoskey faithful
in the packed stands at
Griffin Arena. Derek Smith
also earned an assist on the
timely goal.
It was the second goal of
the game for Pieffer and
Davis also scored earlier in
the contest for Petoskey.
The Northmen trailed 3-2
in the seesaw match before
Mike Fortons fast, fearsome
cannon blast flew past
Thunder goalie Connor
Spence to tie the score at 3.
Brandon Pomranke pro-
duced the puck for Forton
with a pretty pass and Ben
Schwartzfisher also recorded
an assist on the clutch goal.
Senior Kenny Forton, the
other half of Petoskeys furi-
ous Forton fraternity, had
two assists in the big win and
Tom Crampton also record-
ed an assist.
Breanna Merriam was
marvelous in the nets, stand-
ing on her head to turn away
several hard shots directed
at her, especially in the early
going. Breannas brilliant
play kept the game close and
set up Petoskeys later come-
back. Breanna made 23
saves on the day as she
earned the W over the
Thunder (8-6).
ON FRIDAY, the
Northmen lost 7-3 at Alpena.
Pieffer produced two of
the three Petoskey goals in
the game and Davis deliv-
ered the other one. Aaron
Cook put some fire under
the Northmen attack with
his two assists and Kenny
Forton, who makes a habit of
being in the right place at the
right time, earned another
assist.
Petoskey trimmed
Alpenas lead to 5-3 before
the Wildcats (6-5) scored two
empty-net goals to make the
final score seem more lop-
sided than the game really
was.
Adam McCain and
Merriam shared the net-
minding duties.
Schwartzfisher found the
back of the net three times
for a hat trick as Petoskey
captured a razor-thin 5-4
decision over the rugged Bay
Area Reps.
Pieffer and Davis contin-
ued to add potent punch to
the offense, each recording a
goal and an assist in the win
as Petoskey jumped to 5-1 in
the Northern Michigan
Hockey League. Kenny
Forton, who offers more
sweet deliveries than
Dunkin Donuts, had two
more assists. Brandon
Pomranke, Cook and Smith
also had assists.
Petoskey (8-7, 1-3 Big
North) plays host to Big
North foe Cadillac this
Friday, Jan. 18.
Gaylord The annual
Rivals Rally basketball
game between Gaylord St.
Marys and Johannesburg-
Lewiston girls varsity teams
is sure to draw a large crowd
this month as the two teams
compete to promote cancer
awareness and raise funds
for oncology services and
equipment at Otsego
Memorial Hospital (OMH).
All proceeds from this years
game will benefit the OMH
Oncology & Infusion Center.
The game will be held on
Tuesday, January 22 begin-
ning with the JV game at 6:00
pm, a tribute ceremony at
7:15 pm, followed by the
Varsity game at 7:30 pm.
In 2010, the two teams met
at the Johannesburg-
Lewiston school gym on a
blustery northern Michigan
winter evening for an event
that was sure to, and did,
make history. More than 350
spectators turned out for the
game, donning commemo-
rative pink t-shirts created
for the event. The gym
turned into a Pink Out
the line between rival teams,
friends, and families blurred
in support of the cause. This
year, the Foundation is hop-
ing to have the St. Marys
High School gym awash in
purple. Light and dark pur-
ple jerseys will commemo-
rate all those who have
fought and are fighting a bat-
tle with cancer, with light
purple honoring those with
pancreatic cancer. The
memorable event includes a
special half-time ceremony,
a tribute program and an
evening full of hope and
remembrance.
Each player will wear a
special purple themed jersey
with the name of a loved one
who is currently fighting
cancer, or has lost their bat-
tle, and will play in honor or
memory of that person.
Commemorative jerseys are
not limited to players, and
may be purchased by the
general public as a Jersey
Sponsor for $150, which
includes the jersey, two
Rivals Rally for a Cure t-
shirts, two tickets to the
game, and listing in the pro-
gram. Other sponsorships
include Game Sponsor ($100
business card sized ad in
the event program) and
Roster Sponsor ($50 name
will be listed in the pro-
gram).
More than $14,000 was
raised last year through jer-
sey, game, roster, and t-shirt
sponsorships; evidence of
the communities dedication
to the fight against breast
cancer, and support of
oncology services at Otsego
Memorial Hospital.
This event is a positive
experience for everyone
involved, said Christie
Perdue, OMH Foundation
Director. We are really excit-
ed for this to become a tradi-
tion for many years to
come.

ty members in support of

Ford cars, utilities and
trucks all post U.S.
sales gains in 2012;
Company posts best December
sales since 2006
Ford Motor Companys U.S. sales grew
across the board in 2012, with cars up 5
percent, utilities up 7 percent, and trucks
up 2 percent for the year. Overall, the
Ford brand ended 2012 with 2,168,015
vehicles sold the only brand to top 2
million U.S. sales.
Ford finished 2012 strong, with retail
sales showing improved strength as
more customers returned to dealer
showrooms, said Ken Czubay, Ford vice
president, U.S. Marketing, Sales and
Service. Fords fuel-efficient cars and
hybrid vehicles showed the most dra-
matic growth for the year, and we
achieved our best year for commercial
vehicle sales since 2008.
Sales of Fords small cars were up 29
percent in 2012, with 316,006 vehicles
sold, and overall car sales were up 5 per-
cent in 2012, with 760,646 sold. Focus
sales gained 40 percent during the year,
and the all-new C-MAX continues its
strong selling rate. In the first four
months of sales, 13,309 C-MAX vehicles
were sold, making it the fastest sales
start of any hybrid vehicle in the indus-
try.
Ford again became Americas best-sell-
ing brand of utility vehicles in 2012, with
619,470 vehicles sold. Escape broke its
2011 record sales levels with 261,008
vehicles sold, up 3 percent. Explorer
gained 17 percent for the year, with
158,344 vehicles sold.
Ford trucks continued to dominate in
2012 with F-Series Americas best-sell-
ing pickup for the 36th straight year and
31 consecutive years as Americas best-
selling vehicle. Overall, 645,316 F-Series
were sold, a 10 percent increase versus
2011. Total Ford brand truck sales
including Transit Connect and E-Series
were up 2 percent for the year at 829,477
vehicles sold. Ford also remained
Americas largest maker of commercial
trucks for 28 years, posting a 7 percent
increase in 2012. That marks Fords best
year for commercial truck sales since
2008.
Last month, Ford delivered its best
December sales results since 2006, with
214,222 vehicles sold a 2 percent
increase.

With plenty of room to stretch out both inside and out,
this gorgeous country estate, situated about midway
between Gaylord and Vanderbilt, offers a host of beautiful
amenities, setting the perfect stage for a relaxing and com-
forting Northern Michigan lifestyle.
The just over 2,800 square foot two story plus walkout
basement floor plan encompasses three bedrooms and four
baths, and features generously sized rooms throughout.
That included two master suites, one on the main level high-
lighted by a whirlpool tub and separate walk-in shower, and
another master bedroom retreat on the second floor.
Other highlights include an exquisite great room with cus-
tom fireplace, hardwood flooring in the great room and din-
ing area, durable tile flooring in the kitchen, and a conven-
ient main level laundry. The home also features central air
conditioning, a very welcome amenity during the hot sum-
mer season.
The nearly five acres of grounds surrounding this home
are gorgeously landscaped, and a raised rear deck provides
an ideal spot for outdoor entertaining or simply settling back
to enjoy the magnificent natural vistas. A covered deck area
sits below the raised deck, offering a great spot to enjoy the
scenery in the cool shade, or perhaps relax during a gentle
summer rain.
This gorgeous, and spacious country estate near Gaylord is
listed at just $199,000. Call Lesa Jarski at Real Estate One

On the Market
What You
Should
Look for
When
House Hunting
Compliments of Ed Wohlfiel
If youre shopping for a home and can
afford to buy one, you couldnt be in a better
position right now. In many parts of the coun-
try, housing inventory is high and both home
prices and interest rates are low and as a
buyer, you can take advantage of that.
With so many properties on the market,
you can probably take a more leisurely
approach to house hunting without getting
into a fast-paced bidding war. There is a
caveat, however. The best homes priced prop-
erly for the market conditions will always be
in higher demand.
As you begin your search for the right home
for you, it pays to keep in mind things you
need to check carefully so that they dont cost
you big bucks in the long run.
Kitchen
If kitchens matter to you, you might want
to be fairly selective about them when looking
for a new home. The2009 average price for a
minor kitchen remodel for a midrange home
is more than $21,000 and the cost for a major
remodel is more than $57,000 and the costs
are substantially more for higher-end homes.
Look carefully at the appliances, cabinetry,
counters and floor. Those are the elements
that cost more to replace. If possible, you
want newer appliances to save money on
repairs and energy costs; solid-wood cabi-
nets; and solid-surface counters, such as
granite, stainless steel, butcher block or engi-
neered stone. Your floor choices include
wood, cork, laminates and tile and its a mat-
ter of whats comfortable and durable for your
lifestyle.
Bathrooms
Following kitchens, bathrooms are also
expensive rooms to remodel at a 2009 nation-
al average of more than $16,000 because of
the fixtures and plumbing. Make sure you see
no leaks or evidence of leaks in tubs, toilets
and flooring. Sharing bathrooms can be one
of those pain points for families so make sure
you get what you need.
Roof
A roof is a big-ticket item with an average
2009 replacement cost of more than $19,000
although adding a second layer to a roof is not
nearly as expensive as replacing the entire
thing. Inside the house, you can check the
attic, ceilings and skylights for signs of water
damage, look for places where the roof deck is
sagging, and see if you can detect any light
coming through. If you do see light coming
through, it is likely not a problem if the roof is
made of shake shingles. Outside, inspect for
cracked, ripped, curling or missing shingles
and damaged flashing. Also look for rotting,
buckling, blistering or algae growth, which
could also be signs of trouble.
HVAC
An old heater can be hard to repair and eats
up energy at a pace faster than newer units.
Furnaces can start at about $5,000 to replace
and if you buy a combined unit with the air
conditioner, add on several thousand dollars.
You may need to replace the heat pump or air
conditioner if its older than 10 years and a
furnace or boiler if its more than 15 years old.
Basement
The extra room you gain may be a huge
headache if the basement floods. Look for
water marks and find out if the house has a
system for removing water.
Other areas of concern that might cost
money down the line are the driveways and
sidewalks, chimneys, insulation and win-
dows.
If you find a house and your offer is accept-
ed, youll be dealing with a home inspector
who can fill in the gaps with a professionals
eye. The thing is, if you really want the home,
you dont have to let problems deter you. You
are in position to negotiate a price reduction
with the seller or insist repairs be made to the
property before your offer is finalized.
If you can afford a house, you can afford
the luxury of taking your time to find the right
one for you.
