High 5s: 11/21/12
November 21, 2012
With the Thanksgiving holiday mid-week and nearly every fall sport done, we'll give out just one High 5 today. But it goes to a team that's been among the elite for half a decade and could be just getting started.
Holland swimming and diving
The Dutch scored 311.5 points to defeat runner-up Ann Arbor Skyline by 56 at the Lower Peninsula Division 2 Final at Oakland University. Holland totaled seven first-place finishes, including winning all three relays. It was the second-straight championship for the Dutch, who finished LP Division 2 runners-up from 2008-10.

What's My Why: Official Patricia Treman
September 23, 2026
Patricia Treman, Grand Rapids
Treman’s contributions as an MHSAA-registered volleyball official go back to the second season of girls volleyball as an MHSAA-sponsored championship sport.
She began with the 1976-77 school year and also officiated basketball during the first 10 years of her 51-year tenure.
I was mentored by Marcy Weston at CMU, and she’s the person that encouraged me to referee.
Hopefully I do that to someone, (a) young student out there, that something I say or do, that they want to move forward and either officiate or coach volleyball.
“What’s My Why” is a weekly feature telling the stories of MHSAA-registered officials in their own words. If you’re an MHSAA official and would like to share your reason why, please submit a 15 to 45-second video, taken horizontally, to director of officials Sam Davis at [email protected].
