On a shotgun handoff up the middle, Plowden burst into the second level, cut hard toward the right sideline and then outran everyone.

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

SMCC's Christian Craanen makes all-state cross country for third time

BROOKLYN — Christian Craanen was third in the state last year. He had hoped to climb the ladder this season, but his body would not cooperate. The St. Mary Catholic Central junior aggravated a hip injury suffered over the summer a few weeks ago and was not healthy for the Division 3 state cross country finals at Michigan International Speedway on Saturday, Nov. 7. “It’s tough running when every step hurts,” said SMCC coach Nick Eby. “It takes a lot of mental toughness to keep pushing.” More: Jefferson, Whiteford carry torch for Monroe County Region football Craanen exhibited that toughness to earn all-state status by running 16:14 to take 27th place. “That was kind of his goal,” Eby said of Craanen making all-state for the third straight season. Erie Mason’s boys posted the Monroe County Region’s best team finish, taking 20th in Division 3. The New Boston Huron girls were 21st in Division 2. A roundup of all of the Region runners follows. DIVISION 1 Gibraltar Carlson’s Wyatt DelValle was the top Region finisher, taking 74th in the boys race. Cameron Varner placed 154th for Bedford and Monroe’s Gavin Rohr was 182nd.

Troy boys soccer capitalizes on set pieces to claim first state title since 2003

GRAND LEDGE — Two goals on set pieces powered Troy to its first Division 1 soccer since 2003, defeating Livonia Stevenson, 2-1, Saturday evening, Nov. 7, at Grand Ledge High School. Troy scored early on a free kick and then a corner, then was able to rely on its defense the rest of the way. “Any playoff game or big game is very set piece heavy,” Troy coach Adam Spinks said. “I think from the regional semi, we’ve scored on a set piece every single game. We’re a big team so it’s a big part of us.” The opening minutes were owned by Troy (19-0-2), putting the pressure on the Stevenson defense right from the jump. Stevenson senior keeper Luca Allevato was tested early, saving a shot from senior Kevin Garay in the third minute. Troy would keep attacking after a foul set the team up with a free kick in the final third. Senior Ryan Wind sent in a perfect free kick that found senior defender Faris Ibrahim, who then one timed it home to put Troy up 1-0 just six minutes into the match. Stevenson’s defense woke up after the goal, but the team continued to struggle in

Northville football looks to keep its surprise run going in regional final

Northville knew it needed to keep unbeaten Saline’s high-powered offense off the field if it was going to win Friday, Nov. 6. Northville (8-2) did exactly that, grinding out two lengthy touchdown drives and controlling the line of scrimmage in a 17-14 victory to win the Division 1 district championship. Saline (10-1) entered averaging 46.1 points per game, the 10th-best average in Michigan. But Northville limited Saline to just 29 offensive plays. Danny O’Neil punched in the go-ahead TD from the 1-yard line in the third quarter, helping Northville advance to next week’s regional against Detroit Cass Tech (11-0). It’s Northville’s third district championship in program history and second in four seasons. Its first came in 2000. More: Subscribe to “Michigan Sidelines,” our high school sports newsletter “We wanted to control the line of scrimmage, attack the C gap and run downhill to see if they wanted to play a 15-round fight with us, and I don’t think they wanted to,” Northville coach Brent Luplow said. “We were really able to be more physical than them.” Saline quarterback Case Campbell threw a 13-yard TD pass to Gabe Iadipaolo in the first quarter, but Northville responded with a 13-play, 75-yard drive

Adrian's season unravels in district finals loss to Divine Child, Week 11 playoffs roundup

DEARBORN — Luke Bruggeman’s jersey told the story. The royal blue No. 7 on the back of his jersey was practically illegible, with the lettering and a significant portion of the fabric ripped loose. Bruggeman’s undershirt didn’t fare much better as a sizeable hole tore through the fabric on the upper half of his left sleeve. The jersey was battered. So were the Maples. Adrian wrapped up its 2026 season Friday night with a 49-14 loss to Divine Child in the MHSAA Division 4 district finals. The reigning state champion Falcons put the game out of reach early and took a 42-0 lead into halftime. Divine Child’s dynamic duo of quarterback Drew Sheridan and wide receiver Rayshawn Thomas plagued the Maples from the opening drive. Adrian had no answers for the Falcons’ potent passing attack. Offensively, Adrian struggled with Divine Child’s speed and size at the line of scrimmage. The Maples didn’t record a first down until the third quarter. Bruggeman failed to score a touchdown and was held under 100 yards for the first time this season. Adrian’s special teams struggled, too. After a three-and-out on their opening drive, the Maples had a punt blocked by Divine Child’s Gianni
