The girls high school basketball season is underway and its time to mark your calendar for the top games around Metro Detroit this winter.

The following 10 games are listed by date.

Detroit Edison at Chicago Whitney Young (IL) (CANCELED)

Dec. 3, 2021 at 7 p.m.

What do you get when you match up one of the best teams from Michigan against one of the best teams from Illinois to open the season? A great game.

Detroit Edison vs. South Bend Washington (IN)

Dec. 11, 2021 at 8 p.m. @ Belleville H.S.

Not only is this a great matchup between two great teams, it is also a matchup of two of the nation’s best players. Edison’s Ruby Whitehorn (Clemson) takes on Mila Reynolds (Maryland). Washington was Indiana’s 3A state runner-up last year.

Detroit Country Day at St. Clair Shores Lakeview

Dec. 14, 2021 at 7 p.m.

Country Day bounced back last season with a 15-3 record and they are hoping to build off of that success against a Lakeview team that was 15-2 last winter.

Detroit Renaissance at Wayne Memorial

Dec. 15, 2021 at 7 p.m.

These two teams have been top dogs in the state rankings in the last few years. Both graduated key pieces but both also have plenty of young talent ready to blossom.

Grosse Pointe North at Macomb L’Anse Creuse North

Dec. 17, 2021 at 7 p.m.

This is a rematch between last year’s MAC Red champ (GPN) and last year’s MAC White chap (LCN). LCN won last year’s matchup and has bumped up to the Red to try and dethrone GPN.

Detroit Edison vs. Hudsonville

Dec. 18, 2021 at 8 p.m. @ Aquinas College

Hudsonville is the defending D1 champion and Edison is Edison. One of the top matchups in the state this season.

Clarkston at West Bloomfield

Jan. 4, 2022 at 7 p.m.

These were the top two teams in the OAA Red last year. West Bloomfield handed Clarkston two of its four losses a year ago, so the Wolves will be looking for payback.

Farmington Hills Mercy at Bloomfield Hills Marian

Jan. 7, 2022 at 7 p.m.

It’s always an entertaining game when these two rivals meet. Marian won two of the three matchups last season, but it was Mercy that won the Catholic League tournament final over Mustangs.

Detroit Edison at West Bloomfield

Feb. 12, 2022 at 6 p.m.

Edison beat West Bloomfield twice last season, but West Bloomfield brings back major pieces from last year’s team as they look for revenge.

Detroit Edison at East Grand Rapids

March 13, 2022 at 4 p.m.

East Grand Rapids is regularly one of the top teams in the state and any time the east side meets the west side, it’s always an interesting matchup.
