Performance of the Week: Ann Arbor Pioneer's Gabrielle Haudan
November 6, 2026
Gabrielle Haudan ♦ Ann Arbor Pioneer
Junior ♦ Field Hockey
Haudan scored the only goal of this season’s MHSAA Final at Michigan State with 29 seconds left in the first quarter as Ann Arbor Pioneer repeated as champion with a 1-0 win over Saline. The goal made a memorable day even more so, as Haudan celebrated her 17th birthday Saturday.
The junior forward also was a significant contributor on Pioneer’s Finals championship team in 2025 and already is set to continue her career after high school as she’s committed to national power Northwestern. Haudan will be continuing a Division I athletic legacy as her mother Jenny (Zangara) Haudan was on University of Michigan’s 2001 national championship field hockey team and her father Brad ran track at U-M. Gabrielle also runs track for Pioneer and earned a Lower Peninsula Division 1 Regional championship in the 100 meters this past season.

Performance of the Week: Grand Rapids Northview's Cam Ryans
February 13, 2026
Cam Ryans ♦ Grand Rapids Northview
Senior ♦ Basketball
The 6-foot-5 all-state forward scored 41 points as Northview defeated reigning Division 1 champion East Lansing 63-46 at the 2K26 Classic at Grand Rapids Community College – breaking the Trojans’ 40-game winning streak. Ryans also had 10 rebounds and five assists during what also was a matchup of potential Mr. Basketball Award finalists as East Lansing is led by senior KJ Torbert.
Nearly as impressive as the win Saturday was that it came just a day after Northview fell to Ottawa-Kent Conference Gold rival Grand Rapids South Christian, 50-47 in overtime. Northview is 14-4 and tied with South Christian for first in the league. Ryans has scored more than 1,500 points during his career and set his school’s career scoring record during a Jan. 9 win over the Sailors. He’s signed to continue his career at Western Michigan, joining his brother EJ Ryans, a sophomore for the Broncos.
