E. Lansing, MI.- Michigan's Boy's Basketball season came to and end last Saturday as four teams raised championship trophies, players emerged, and memories were built that will last a life time. Read more about the three days at the Breslin…

This is the first time that I remember where all four favored teams won their classes championship. Kalamazoo Central, last year's runner up in Class A, never looked back on an early lead to defeat Ann Arbor Huron in Class A. Detroit Country Day, who underachieved the last two seasons, dismantled Lansing Sexton in Class B. Melvindale Academy of Business & Technology, who vacated last year championship due to use of an ineligible player, had to many weapons for Suttons Bay in Class C. Muskegon Western Michigan Christian became the first school in twenty years to win three consecutive championships as experience and talent led them past Marine City Cardinal Mooney in Class D. Congratulations to teams throughout Michigan for providing another great season.
