There are a lot of great places to be during the winter, but there might not be a better place than the Sy Green gymnasium at Pontiac HS.
It might simply be the mecca of basketball in Oakland County with all the great games that have been held in that gym, and another one is on the horizon.
Thursday will be a huge one when Southfield visits Pontiac for the first of two meetings this year between two of the county's best teams.
Southfield beat the Phoenix in all three meetings last year, including in a Class A regional semifinal at Lake Orion, so Pontiac no doubt will be fired up for this one.
So will Kosmo and everyone else around the county, because for regular season matchups in January, it won't get much better than this.
- Former Novi Detroit Catholic Central boys soccer standout Josh Gatt continues to thrive playing professionally over in Europe. After playing well in a second division league in Austria, Gatt has been promoted to play for a first division team in Norway called Molde FK.
Seems hard to believe that just over a year ago Gatt was tearing it up on high school soccer fields in the Detroit area. Now, others around the world are finding out how good he is.
