Here is the regional previews for Girls Basketball set for Monday and Wednesday March 10th and 12th.

CLARKSTON vs Utica Eisenhower @ Lapeer

This is a really interesting matchup. The Wolves are the more veteran team taking on an Eagles team that is coming into this game with a lot of confidence. Clarkston came from 17 down on their home floor to stun Lake Orion 59-56 in overtime in an emotional rivalry game. Utica Eisenhower beat Stoney Creek 49-46 at Stoney Creek in a very controversial game. The interior matchup looks to be the key in this matchup and can Clarkston stop the full court trap Utica Eisenhower does??? It should be a really interesting matchup.

 

WEST BLOOMFIELD vs Grand Blanc @ Lapeer

This is a Division One State Finals rematch and also a rematch from a 76-39 Lakers win over the Bobcats on West Bloomfield's senior night. The Bobcats will have an advantage on travel but West Bloomfield isn't afraid of anyone. Usually the Lakers perform which they did against Orchard Lake St. Marys winning 41-36 on their home floor. This should be a really interesting matchup. 

CLARKSTON vs WEST BLOOMFIELD @ Lapeer

This is a rematch of two meetings between the Wolves and the Lakers. Clarkston won 37-30 and West Bloomfield won 44-43 on their respective home floors. The matchup to watch is in the interior between London Hall and Ella Morgner. Whoever wins that matchup likely wins the game. It should be a really interesting game.

 

ROYAL OAK vs Warren Cousino @ St. Clair Shores Lakeview

The Ravens won their second straight district crown with a 42-35 win over Berkley on their home floor. Now they bring the baby green dinosaur to St. Clair Shores to have a rematch with Warren Cousino. The Patriots have not forgotten the 43-41 buzzer beater by Lucy Freytag last season in Warren. This looks to be a classic between these two teams. The winner will likely see Utica Ford II or Macomb Dakota in the regional final.

 

FERNDALE vs Redford Union @ Detroit Edison

The Eagles are coming off a convincing 62-28 district final rout of Madison Heights Lamphere. Ferndale has proven players despite the lack of depth. The Eagles should have no issue but they will have a tough one if they can get by Redford Union with Detroit Edison in the regional finals. It will be really interesting to see what happens. 

FERNDALE at Detroit Edison

The Eagles have a really tough matchup looming with the host Detroit Edison. The Pioneers are a proven powerhouse. It's going to be a tough matchup for Ferndale to say the least.
