EDITOR’S NOTE:This is a repost from April 5.

 

Auburn Hills Avondale

 

HEAD COACH: Kim Kutschmann, first season.

2011 RECORD: 4-0-1, 4-0-1 OAA Gold Division.

LEAGUE TOURNAMENT FINISH: Won OAA Gold Division league meet (126 points).

FINAL LEAGUE FINISH: First in final OAA-Gold standings.

COUNTY FINISH: 14^th (22 points).

REGIONAL FINISH: Fifth at Bloomfield Hills Lahser Division 2 regional (62 points).

STATE FINALS FINISH: 15^th at Division 2 state finals (13 points).

JUMPS: Ashley Moskal, sr.; Julia Mastrocci, soph.

THROWS: Elise Anderson, jr.; Rachel Connell, jr.

SPRINTS: Patsy Thompson, sr.; Sabrina Douglas, soph.; Alonia Slappy, jr.; Julia Mastracci, soph.

HURDLES: Anna Haritos, soph.; Takiyah Smith, jr.; Shelby Gird, jr.

MIDDLE DISTANCE: Ashley Moskal, sr.; Haley McCruden, jr.; Navica Colonna, jr.

LONG DISTANCE: Suzanne Wdowik, soph.

KEY LOSSES: Jasmine Jones (All-State sprinter), Danielle Lentz (sprints), Katie Tullock (sprints).

NOTABLES: Avondale won the OAA-Gold title this season and now is competing in the OAA-Blue. There were a few key losses to graduation, and the Yellowjackets will not be favored to win a league this season competing alongside Birmingham Seaholm.

 

 

Auburn Hills Oakland Christian

HEAD COACH: Chuck Snyder, sixth season.

LEAGUE TOURNAMENT FINISH: Fourth at MIAC league meet (59 points).

FINAL LEAGUE FINISH: Fourth at MIAC league meet (59 points).

COUNTY FINISH: Did not score.

REGIONAL FINISH: Fourth at Division 4 Webberville regional (67 points).

STATE FINALS FINISH: Did not score at D-4 state meet.

JUMPS: Kelsey Lucas, jr.; Ally Erickson, jr.

THROWS: Anni Smither, jr.

SPRINTS: Ally Erickson, jr.

HURDLES: Hannah Snyder, soph.

KEY LOSSES: Amber Alexander (high jump, hurdles); Kalena Shaw (sprints);Alexis Nelson (distances)

NOTABLES: With a small band of 12 athletes last spring, the Lancers were still able to muster top-five finishes at the league and regional. With a small and unproven squad once again, minus some quality losses to graduation, and it’s hard to tell just how well Oakland Christian will fair against other small schools in the area.

 

Clarkston

HEAD COACH: John Yorke, fifth season.

2011 RECORD: 3-3-0, 3-3-0 OAA Red Division.

LEAGUE TOURNAMENT FINISH: Sixth at OAA Red Division league met (50 points).

FINAL LEAGUE FINISH: Fifth in final OAA-Red standings.

COUNTY FINISH: 27^th (six points).

REGIONAL FINISH: Fifth at Division 1 Ortonville Brandon regional (57 points).

STATE FINALS FINISH: 37^th at Division 1 state finals (five points).

JUMPS: Anna Manilla, sr. (All-State in high jump); Taylor Mullins, fr.; Tessa Manilla, fr.; Maisey Peterson, jr.; Taylor Wright, sr.

THROWS: Kayle Sherwood, jr.

SPRINTS: Maddie Wilson, fr.; Taylor Mullins, fr.; Alexis Yarnall, soph.; Tessa Manilla, fr.

HURDLES: Maisey Peterson, jr.; Franzi Loetzner, soph.; Taylor Mullins, fr.

MIDDLE DISTANCE: Erin Billitte, jr.; Molly Jeffers, jr.; Sydney Thon, fr.; Hannah Hawkins, soph.; Makenzie Proper, soph.; Jill Harris, jr.

LONG DISTANCE: Natalie Smith, sr.; Lynsie Graham, fr.; Kaitlin Catania, jr.; Sage Bearegard, soph.; Carly Knavish, soph.; Lindsay Fantin, sr.

KEY NEWCOMERS: Taylor Mullins, fr.; Maddie Wilson, fr.; Tessa Manilla, fr.; Sydney Thon, fr.

KEY LOSSES: Caitlyn Post (middle distance); Laura Smokoska (throws), Zhane Lyons (sprints), Kacy Robinson (sprints), Gillian Ward (sprints).

NOTABLES: Clarkston is back on the rise after a couple of down years and should be in the thick of the OAA Red Division race, along with Adams and Rochester. The Wolves could also be a threat to win the regional. What makes Clarkston talented is that it has quality performers in each event that bodes well in a dual setting, but also has a core of 8-9 athletes that can rack up points at the larger meets.

KEY NEWCOMERS: Emily Alvarado, fr.

KEY LOSSES: Paige Barker, Jenna Mitchell, Amy Deroucha, Rachel Derocher, Melissa Morehead, Charlotte Ruffini, Breanna Konopitski, Emily Tschirhart.

NOTABLES: Holly should still be one of the better teams in the Flint Metro League and may be a top five team at the regional level, but the Bronchos lost some depth from last year’s team that won the league and finished second at the regional.

 

Lake Orion

HEAD COACH: Sjonne Mitchell, third season.

2011 RECORD: 1-5-0, 1-5-0 OAA Red Division.

LEAGUE TOURNAMENT FINISH: Seventh at OAA Red Division league meet (49.5 points).

KEY NEWCOMERS: Corey Flanders, fr.; Madeline Ray, fr.;

KEY LOSSES: Linnea Berriman (All-State in discus); Alexandria Johnson (All-State hurdler; Ohio State); Sarah Daly (middle distance); Lauren Galasso (sprints);

NOTABLES: Lake Orion graduated back-to-back senior classes loaded with talent, leaving this team in a rebuilding mode. The Dragons are the type of team that will benefit from competing in the OAA Red Division, which will prepare them for the regional and county meets with a young squad.

 

 

Ortonville Brandon

HEAD COACH: Greg Hyde.

2011 RECORD: 6-2, 6-2 Flint Metro League.

LEAGUE TOURNAMENT FINISH: Third at Flint Metro League meet (68 1/5 points).

THROWS: Kristin Tyburski, jr.; April Feree, sr.

SPRINTS: Tiffani Owens, jr.; Jayona Dent, jr.; Kierra Johnson, jr.; Madee Pierce, fr.

HURDLES: Taylor Rieves, fr.; Monica Pittiglio, fr.

MIDDLE DISTANCE: Jayona Dent, jr.; Kelly Hamilton, fr.; Paige Harrington, jr.

LONG DISTANCE: Paige Arney, fr.

KEY NEWCOMERS: Kelly Hamilton, fr.; Paige Arney, fr.; Madee Pierce, fr.; Taylor Rieves, fr.; Monica Pittiglio, fr.

KEY LOSSES: Rachel Gibson (jumps, sprints); Brianna Lung (jumps).

NOTABLES: This could be one of Brandon’s better teams this season, with an explosives group of big-meet sprinters, adequate field events personal and up-and-coming distance crew. Expect this team to challenge for a league title and also score its fair share of points at the county and regional and even the D-1 state finals. The best part of this group that there is very few seniors that will be contributing at the larger meets.

 

Oxford

HEAD COACH: Bob Blunk, second season.

2011 RECORD: 3-0-1, 3-0-1 OAA White Division (had one meet cancelled).

LEAGUE TOURNAMENT FINISH: Third at OAA White Division meet (77.5 points).

FINAL LEAGUE FINISH: Tied for second in final OAA White Division standings.

COUNTY FINISH: 14^th (21 points).

THROWS: Victoria Bearse, soph.; Megan Kerin, jr.

SPRINTS: Bri Jackson, jr. (injured last season); Brijana Jackson, fr.; Jessica Murphy, soph.; Taylor Taraski, soph.; Aminah Pettiford, soph.

HURDLES: Morgan Lavender, fr.; Cara Commons, fr.; Katie Economou, soph.

MIDDLE DISTANCE: Brittany Johnson, sr.; Chelsea Johnson, sr.; Jessica Murphy, fr. Emily Cleland, soph.; Angela Savich, soph.; Andrea Kocher, jr.

KEY NEWCOMERS: Morgan Lavender, fr.; Cara Commons, fr.; Emily Cleland, soph.; Angela Savich, soph.; Jenna Feeney, fr.

KEY LOSSES: Megan Seely (middle distance); Michelle Gilmore, sr. (state qualifier in hurdles last season, not competing); Anna Daves (throws), Rachel Lerma (sprints).

NOTABLES: Oxford felt the blow when a handful of athletes opted not to return this season, leaving the Wildcats a little thinner than originally anticipated. This team still has several big-meet performers and will finish in the top half of most meets when healthy.

 

Pontiac

 

HEAD COACH:

2011 RECORD: 2-3-0, 2-3-0 OAA Gold Division.

LEAGUE TOURNAMENT FINISH: Fourth at OAA Gold Division meet (106 points).

FINAL LEAGUE FINISH: Fourth at OAA Gold Division league meet (106 points).

COUNTY FINISH: Sixth (33 points).

REGIONAL FINISH: Sixth at Division 1 Ortonville Brandon regional (54 points).

MIDDLE DISTANCES: Juanitria Magee, soph.; AmandaMiller, jr.

KEY NEWCOMERS: Areshia Gibbs-Bradley, fr.

KEY LOSSES: Shaquala Phillips (hurdles); Angela Bursey (throws), Camille Gee-Simmons (hurdles).

NOTABLES: The OAA shift to geographical division has the Phoenix in the OAA-White. Pontiac, like many past years, may not be a very deep team and excel in dual meets, but will have a core of athletes that will again shine at large invitational-style meets.

 

 

Pontiac Academy of Excellence

NOTABLES: Cancelled program for 2012.

 

Pontiac Notre Dame Prep

2011 RECORD: 6-0, 6-0 CHSL AA Division.

LONG DISTANCE: Christina Casali, sr.; Sara Barron, sr.

KEY NEWCOMERS: Angela Pangori, fr.

NOTABLES: Notre Dame Prep was a talented team in the CHSL and Division 2 last season. With a solid core of returnees, along with a strong contingent of newcomers, this team could again be a formidable group against other schools its size.

 

Rochester

HEAD COACH: Larry Adams, fourth season.

2011 RECORD: 4-1-1, 4-1-1 OAA Red Division.

LEAGUE TOURNAMENT FINISH: First at OAA Red Division league meet (105 points).

(transferred to Auburn Hills Avondale; state qualifier in sprint relays); Ally Stanjones, sr. (throws).

NOTABLES: Two years removed from its Division 1 state championship team, expect Rochester still to up points in bunches at the league, regional and county level. The Falcons may also challenge with Adams and Clarkston for top honors at the league meet, although this team only has a couple of athletes with outside chances of top eight medals at the state finals.

 

Rochester Adams

HEAD COACH: Eric Lohr, third season.

2011 RECORD: 3-1-2, 3-1-2 OAA Red Division.

LEAGUE TOURNAMENT FINISH: Third at OAA Red Division league meet (76.5 points).

KEYNECOMERS: Amber Jamison, fr.; Raiven Owusu, fr.; Sydney Starwalt, fr.; Sophie Smith, fr.; Jessica Filbin, fr.

KEY LOSSES: Haley Hendricks (high jump, hurdles); Angelica Rankings (throws).

NOTABLES: An upset loss to Clarkston stunned the Highlanders just before Spring Break. With virtually the whole team back and an exceptionally deep and talented freshman class, expect this team to still compete for league and regional titles and return to the top five at the county meet in May. The Highlanders should also see several athletes score at the state finals. A program with a lot of history, this could end up being one of the school’s better teams.

 

 

Rochester Stoney Creek

HEAD COACH: Paul Duffy, 10^th season.

2011 RECORD: 2-3-0, 2-3-0 OAA White Division.

LEAGUE TOURNAMENT FINISH: Sixth at OAA White Division (53 points).

STATE FINALS FINISH: Did not score at Division 1 state finals.

JUMPS: Berrion Berry, sr.

SPRINTS: Berrion Berry, sr. (signed with Bowling Green); Colleen Brummitt, sr.; Kaylee Zajac, sr.; Genelle Selden, sr.

HURDLES: Laura Johnston, sr.; Brittany Dymm, jr.

MIDDLE DISTANCE: Rachel Watton, sr.

LONG DISTANCE: Nichole Kowalchick, soph.

KEY LOSSES: Ashley Halm (sprints), Stephanie Cosentino (sprints); Mary Santi (distance);Megan Joiner (jumps, sprints)

NOTABLES: Moving to the OAA-Red, the Cougars will have some formidable athletes in certain events, but not enough of them. Nevertheless, facing stiff competition will aid the Cougars’ cause during the championship season, where they will still score points and send a contingent to the state meet.

 

 

Rochester Hills Lutheran Northwest

 

HEAD COACH: Randy Tyler, fifth season.

LEAGUE TOURNAMENT FINISH: Second at MIAC league meet (76 points).

FINAL LEAGUE FINISH: Second at MIAC league meet (76 points).

REGIONAL FINISH: Fifth at Division 4 Webberville regional (58 points).

STATE FINALS FINISH: Did not score at Division 4 state finals.

JUMPS: Rachyl VanderPloeg, sr.; Marissa King, sr.

THROWS: Abby Pierce, sr.

SPRINTS: Rachyl VanderPloeg, sr.

HURDLES: Rachyl VanderPloeg, sr.; Amy Rink, sr.

MIDDLE DISTANCE: Emily Holycross, soph.; Lizzy Rouce, fr.; Amanda Ennis, sr.

LONG DISTANCE: Kristina Siekiewicz, jr.

KEY NEWCOMERS: Lizzy Rouce, fr.

KEY LOSSES: Laura Blom (distance), Michelle Muthart (sprints, jumps).

NOTABLES: Numbers have increased significantly to 14 competitors this season. That should help the Crusaders, who return several of their top athletes from a team that managed a runner up finish in the league last season.

 

Troy

HEAD COACH: Matt Richardson, seventh season.

2011 RECORD: 6-0-0, 6-0-0 OAA Red Division.

LEAGUE TOURNAMENT FINISH: Second at OAA Red Division league meet (85 points).

JUMPS: Haley Wendt, jr.; Sarah Chmielewski, jr.; Katie Shaheen, sr.; Rachael Zelmanski, soph.; Micah Jones, soph.;  Taryn Holliday, fr.

THROWS: Alexsys Pullen, jr.; Tupper Bigelow, sr.; Diana Otero, sr.; Kim Christie, sr.

HURDLES: Sydney Heath, soph.; Kim Christie, sr.; Abby Green, soph.; Jessica Mathis, soph.

MIDDLE DISTANCE: Katie Shaheen, sr.

LONG DISTANCE: Lauren Miller, soph.; Tarah Thompson, sr.(missed last season); Kira Burnett, jr.; Maral Toukhanian, jr.

KEY NEWCOMERS: There are 30 freshmen on the team, but this group is highly unproven with no phenoms in the group.

KEY LOSSES: Ashley Dauphine (sprints), Theresa Hencie (middle distance), Julia Dinverno (middle distance), Lindsey Miller (middle distance), Emily Herbon (hurdles), Monique Nguyen (high jump, hurdles); Shay Peterson (throws); Sara Lin, sr.(Hurdles, pole vault).

NOTABLES: Troy, which has finished first or second in the league each of the past seven years, has shifted more towards a sprints and field events team as its distance core took a large hit to graduation each of the past two years. Expect the colts to win the OAA white Division (central schools) and maybe be able to win another regional.

 

 

Troy Athens

HEAD COACH: Mike Stallsmith, 21^st season.

2011 RECORD: 2-3-0, 2-3-0 OAA Blue Division.

LEAGUE TOURNAMENT FINISH: Third at OAA Blue Division (85 points).

KEY LOSSES: Zakiya Aniapam (sprints); Kristi Villarosa (hurdles), Lindsey Ransone (hurdles, jumps), Kate Dickerson (distance), Emily Orlando (distance).

NOTABLES: Athens has a handful of quality athletes, but what will hurt the Red Hawks is sure numbers. There are only 26 athletes on the entire roster.
