Harper Woods football uses trick play to put away Detroit King in district final

HARPER WOODS — What do you do when you’re Harper Woods and you’re nursing a 14-6 lead over Detroit King with just under eight minutes left in the Division 3 district championship? Do you keep feeding the ball to five-star senior and Oregon commit Dakota Guerrant, who accounted for 83 of his team-high 112 rushing yards out of the wildcat formation in the second half? Or do you risk it all with a trick play to put away the game? Harper Woods went big. More: Subscribe to “Michigan Sidelines,” our high school sports newsletter Down the stretch, Guerrant was gaining nine yards here, seven yards there. He even ripped off a pair of 15-yarders. But when Harper Woods reached midfield, it checked out of another run and called a play it had been waiting to run all season. That’d be the hook and ladder. Quarterback Austin Mitchell threw a short pass to Guerrant on a hook route. Guerrant immediately pitched the ball backward to four-star recruit Deandre Bidden, who got the edge on King’s defense and raced 60 yards untouched to essentially seal the 20-6 victory with 7:11 left and send Harper Woods (9-2) to next week’s regional final against

Hazel Park school board leadership change looms after election loss

The balance of power and leadership on the Hazel Park school board is poised to shift in the wake of the Nov. 3 election results. While Board President Bev Hinton won reelection Nov. 3, Vice President Debra Laframboise lost her bid to stay on the board. Hinton and Laframboise have been two of four votes in the majority on the seven-member board that sought to oust the district's former superintendent and quickly installed a former Taylor Public Schools superintendent in her place without a search process. Newcomer Jason Hodgson, a parent with two children in the Oakland County district and one who graduated in 2024, won a seat on the board. He tallied the second highest number of votes in the race behind incumbent board member Monica Rattee, who has heavily criticized the board's leadership. With three seats up for election, Rattee received 24% of the vote, followed by Hodgson with about 19% and Hinton with 17%. Laframboise came in fourth with just over 16% of the vote. Hinton and Laframboise did not immediately return phone calls seeking comment. On Facebook, Hinton posted a thank you to the community. "I am so honored that you once again supported me to

America at 250 through Gen Z's eyes as midterms reshape politics

As America’s 250th anniversary year ends, a lingering student exhibit on Oakland University's campus offers lessons that the professor behind the project had hoped for — and one he didn't plan at all. The Nov. 3 elections — what some have described as a "blue tsunami" — shifted control of both the House and Senate in the same midterm for the first time in 20 years, from Republican red to Democratic blue. The results led to what some consider a modern political revolution, repudiating a president who has been characterized as imperial. University Center — the Oakland University's hub of student various activities, dining, and events — summarizes America's history in just 54 moments." id="92640287007"> The timeline — which showcases student scholarship on a wall in the University Center and ends on July 4, 2026, the 250th anniversary — summarizes America's history in about 50 moments. The project also gives Michiganders insight into what young adults in their 20s, often labeled as "woke" but also politically diverse, think about America. That group, Gen Z, showed up on college campuses in record numbers to vote. By one count, it was the second-highest midterm youth voter turnout in 30 years . More:

Andrew Corder leads Warren De La Salle to Division 2 boys soccer title

GRAND LEDGE — An impressive performance from senior forward Andrew Corder powered Warren De La Salle (21-3-4) to its third consecutive Division 2 boys soccer title, defeating St. Joesph (23-1-0), 3-2, Saturday, Nov. 7, at Grand Ledge High School. Corder assisted on De La Salle's opening goal, then scored twice himself in the second half, his second straight postseason game with a brace. The senior ends his career as the program’s all-time leading goal scorer. “There’s no doubt that Andrew Corder is Mr. Soccer,” coach Thaier Mukhtar said. “If there was any doubt before now there isn’t. He scored two goals in the semifinal, two in the championship, who can deny him.” The game opened with St. Joesph applying pressure, taking four corner kicks in the game’s first 10 minutes. St. Joseph was unable to capitalize on the early momentum though, failing to test De La Salle senior keeper Dominic Baldarotta with the first two shots of the contest. The momentum flipped moments later, with Corder pushing the ball down the left wing for De La Salle's first real chance of the game. He put a beautiful cross in, finding the foot of senior midfielder Settimo Leone, who calmly slotted
