Performance of the Week: Huron Valley United's Stella Musialowski
January 30, 2026
Stella Musialowski ♦ Milford
Senior ♦ Gymnastics
Musialowski – who competes for Huron Valley United, a cooperative team of Milford and White Lake Lakeland students – finished first in the Division 1 all-around competition at her program’s Jeanne Caruss Memorial Invitational, which featured 20 teams from across the state. She scored a 38.0075, with first places on balance beam (9.7) and uneven parallel bars (9.4), a second place on floor exercise (9.675) and third on vault (9.3).
Her all-around success led Huron Valley United to a third-place team finish behind only annual Finals championship contenders Rockford and Farmington United. Musialowski – who played hockey and softball as well growing up before focusing on competitive gymnastics – is accelerating toward a big finish to her high school career. She finished 15th in Division 1 all-around at the MHSAA Finals as a sophomore and improved to sixth last season with a score of 36.800.

Performance of the Week: Grand Rapids West Catholic's Oliver Caldwell
November 1, 2024
Oliver Caldwell ♦ Grand Rapids West Catholic
Freshman ♦ Tennis
Caldwell became the fourth Grand Rapids West Catholic tennis standout – and second from his family in three seasons – to win a Finals championship at No. 1 singles when he claimed the Lower Peninsula Division 4 top-flight title at Midland Tennis Center with a 6-2, 6-3, victory over Traverse City St. Francis' Owen Jackson. Caldwell followed his older brother Simon, who won No. 1 singles in LPD4 in 2022.
After entering the Finals as the top seed at No. 1 singles, Oliver Caldwell won all four of his matches in straight sets, including over fifth-seeded Luke Zhang of Plymouth Christian Academy and the second-seeded Jackson. West Catholic placed sixth as a team at the Final. Caldwell finished this fall 33-1, his only loss to Jackson on Aug. 22 and all 33 wins coming in straight sets.
