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.

Performance of the Week: Bangor's Isabelle Horvath
April 25, 2025
Isabelle Horvath ♦ Bangor
Junior ♦ Softball
Horwath reached 500 career strikeouts during a six-inning no-hitter win over Comstock, finishing with 14 Ks total. She also had three singles and a double during her milestone strikeout game, and two more hits with six more strikeouts during another win over Comstock in the second game.
The junior pitcher opened this season with a pair of no-hitters against Eau Claire, and she has Bangor off to a 12-2 start after Thursday night's sweep of White Pigeon. Horvath also plays volleyball and basketball, and earned all-league honorable mention this winter in the Southwest 10 Conference.
