We're down to three area teams in the girls basketball quarterfinals, and Kosmo wishes the best for Birmingham Detroit Country Day, Waterford Our Lady of the Lakes and Waterford Kettering as they try and reach the state's final four in East Lansing.
As far as Kosmo is concerned, it'll be a Waterford festival at Breslin Center.
While Country Day will likely fall to Goodrich, Kosmo sees Kettering and WOLL making it to the final four.
This would be a great thing for the Waterford community, which has taken a bit of a beating athletics-wise over the years. The football teams at Mott and Kettering have each won one game in two years, and that was against each other. The basketball teams haven't gotten past districts either in both boys and girls, while the traditionally strong softball teams have also regressed a bit (but could come back soon).
But with the Kettering girls getting past districts this year, the Mott boys still very much alive for a long run in the state tournament and the WOLL girls two-time defending state champions in Class D, this is a nice time for a supportive community that has been yearning for something to brag about in athletics.
Enjoy it, Waterford, This should be a fun couple of weeks.
