  • The Riverview Pirates win their district, defeating the Grosse Ile Red Devils 45-27.  Is it prudent to mention that Grosse Ile has Ohio's colors and uses Michigan Agricultural College's fight song?  I think so.  Regionals up next.
  • The Wolverines never really woke up, and were the victims of the #5 play in ESPN's Friday Top Plays....but somehow (Burke Burke Burke) found a way to defeat the Gophers in OT (UMHoops Recap).  Cheaters up next.
  • Michigan Hockey survived double overtime and beat Notre Dame in game 1 of a 3-game-seres at Yost.  Of note, Michigan Agricultural College lost 6-0 to Miami of Ohio.

    • Looking forward to a productive Saturday.  Go Blue!
