P-W

congratulations to our league champions this season. DeWitt won the CAAC Blue, Williamston surprised many by winning the CAAC Red. Portland and Lansing Catholic shared the CAAC White championship, and Portland St. Patrick won the CMAC.

Another high school boys basketball season is over. And so this article is sort of like the "Season In Review" article recapping the season.

Just two weeks remain in the girls basketball regular season. And in the game of the week last week, Portland avenged their only loss of the season by beating defending Division 2 state champion Lansing Catholic at home by a 51-44 count. Guard Malia Thelen was great, scoring 27 points and leading them to victory.

Congratulations are in order for Lansing Sexton and Laingsburg as they clinched the CAAC White and CMAC, respectively, with wins last week. It's Sexton's first league title since 2012, when Carlton Valentine led the then-Big Reds to the second of two straight Class B state titles.

There are no changes in the top six of this week's poll. But below that, there are changes. Haslett falls out of the poll after two losses to Lansing Catholic and Williamston. And so does Leslie after losing in overtime to Marshall on Saturday.

This week's top 10 is jumbled around again after last week's (and Monday's) results.

We are now in the home stretch of the boys basketball season. The state tournament starts in three weeks and the draws for the district tournament will be made public next week.

The jumbled mess (and I don't mean that in a derogatory sense) that is the CMAC has moved some teams around this week.

Had this poll been done on Monday, it would've looked different. But with Portland St. Patrick's surprising 51-45 victory over previously undefeated Ovid-Elsie on Monday night, that necessitated some changes.

We are now in the heart of the regular season in high school boys basketball. Not quite to the halfway point, but close.
