A back-and-forth battle for the 1988 Class C girls basketball title is the subject of this week’s 80s Finals Flashback series on MHSAA.tv.
The eighth game in our weekly summer series has St. Joseph Lake Michigan Catholic taking on Ontonagon.
Here’s a look at this week’s game:
Week of August 15 – St. Joseph Lake Michigan Catholic 41, Ontonagon 39 – 1988 Class C Girls Basketball Final – This one was tight all the way. Ontonagon led at halftime, 24-20, but Lake Michigan Catholic rallied to lead after three quarters, 30-28. Ontonagon led by as many as four points during the final period. With 34 seconds remaining, Tirzah Wilson nailed both ends of a bonus situation to give Lake Michigan Catholic a 41-39 victory. Catholic's Kelly Rose led all scorers with 17 points, and also grabbed a Finals record 25 rebounds. Jill Mattson paced Ontonagon with 13 points.
A new game will be posted online each Monday through the week of August 22. DVDs may be purchased directly from the MHSAA.tv Website – just click the “Get DVD” button below the player.

We Need Your Help with Hoops
January 17, 2013
We’re quickly making major headway in catching up our basketball scores and schedules for this winter, just in time for league races to get rolling.
But we'd be grateful for your help filling in a number of results we've missed during the season’s first half.
Lending a hand is easy. Just visit MHSAA.com and click on the “Scores and Schedules” link here or on the top left side of the home page. That will take you to the day’s scoreboard – but also let you search for games on any day this season, or for any school that is a member of the MHSAA. (See below).
To find games that have been played but for which we don't have scores, merely search for any series of dates and click the box that reads "Only show contests with no score."
You also can search for a specific school by clicking on “Schools” in the main menu bar. Once on a school’s page, a list of sports it sponsors and links to each schedule appear on the left side.
You must be registered with MHSAA.com to enter a score. But registration is simple and takes just a few seconds, and requires only a working e-mail address to get you started. Click here to get signed up.
We’re busily adding missing games to incomplete schedules and correcting standings for leagues not properly listed. But with a little assistance filling in scores, we can again have the most complete basketball scores and schedules available. These pages also will update automatically with scores and future opponents once District tournaments begin.
See a team schedule or league standings that look complete but still aren't quite right? Email editor Geoff Kimmerly at [email protected] and let him know what needs to be fixed.
