Performance of the Week: Fowler's Katie Spicer
March 27, 2025
Katie Spicer ♦ Fowler
Senior ♦ Basketball
After leading Fowler in scoring all season, Katie Spicer capped off her senior year with a game-high 17 points in a commanding 53-29 win over Ewen-Trout Creek in the MHSAA Division 4 Final. She also added three rebounds and three assists in the championship victory. Just two days earlier, Spicer helped lift the Eagles past Genesee Christian in the Semifinals, contributing 12 points and seven rebounds.
Spicer averaged 12.5 points per game this season, helping Fowler to a 27-2 record. After falling in the Semifinals in both 2023 and 2024, the Eagles broke through to claim their third Division 4 title over the past five years – and their fourth overall. In addition to her basketball success, Spicer played a key role on the 2024 Fowler girls track & field team that captured the LPD4 Finals championship. She finished second in the 100-meter dash, third in the 200, sixth in the 400, and second in the long jump. Spicer will continue her athletic career at Saginaw Valley State University, competing in track & field.

Performance of the Week: Kingsley's Jenna Middleton
September 25, 2026
Jenna Middleton ♦ Kingsley
Senior ♦ Volleyball
Kingsley’s record-setting outside hitter became the 35th player in MHSAA girls volleyball history to reach 2,000 kills during the rally scoring era, doing so during her team’s win over Negaunee on Sept 12, and then set the school record for kills three days later during a win over Grayling. She’s up to 2,057 career kills after adding 23 more to her total Tuesday against Harbor Springs.
The returning all-stater also was her team’s leading hitter as the Stags won last season’s Division 3 championship, and she’s helped Kingsley to a 27-3-1 record and No. 5 ranking this week in Division 2. She does not intend to continue playing volleyball after high school, but plans to attend Northern Michigan University and study English and potentially creative writing or journalism.
