Senior ♦ Golf

Posey is off to a magnificent start to her senior season, and it’s included a career first. A four-year high school golfer who tied for 18th individually at last season’s Lower Peninsula Division 3 Final, Posey drilled her first hole-in-one, on No. 8 at Katke Golf Course at Ferris State on Aug. 26 during her team’s first Central State Activities Association event this fall. She used a 9-iron to ace the 117-yard hole.

Big Rapids is the reigning CSAA champion and won the tournament, with Posey shooting a first-place 75. She then finished second at the Whitehall Invitational a day later and Tuesday carded an 80 to win the Lady Tullymore Invitational against a field that included several top teams from the west side of the state. Posey also serves as manager/statistician for Big Rapids’ girls basketball and softball teams and would like to study sports medicine and play golf in college.

Performance of the Week: Detroit Cass Tech's Stevie Hall

January 9, 2026

Junior ♦ Basketball

The 6-foot-2 guard scored the game-winning basket in Detroit Cass Tech's 54-52 victory over Cleveland Central Catholic during the Dec. 29 Detroit Public School League Holiday Classic. He also went over 1,000 career points during that game, which he finished with 32 points, seven assists and five steals as the Technicians broke a two-game losing streak. 

Hall followed that milestone a day later with 31 points in Cass Tech's 82-42 win over Macomb L'Anse Creuse North at the Motor City Roundball Classic at Ferndale, a win that gave his father and coach Steve Hall 200 leading the Technicians boys basketball program. Stevie Hall – who already has received several Division I college basketball offers – has scored 30 more more points in six straight games, and Cass Tech is 5-3.
