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.

Cabrini Rolls Past Top Two Seeds to Clinch 1st Finals Championship

MUSKEGON – First time champions seemed to be the theme at Northway Lanes in Muskegon as Allen Park Cabrini joined girls champs Ravenna in capturing their schools’ first MHSAA Finals team championship Friday.
In an intense atmosphere, Allen Park Cabrini continuously entertained their fans during match play, following a sweep of Benzie Central by taking down No. 1 seed Houghton Lake in four games and then second-seeded Jonesville in the championship match.
“These guys work their butts off. They practice hard and they show up every week. I’m proud of them,” said Allen Park Cabrini head coach Joseph Csernai.
The Monarchs, seeded fourth after qualifying, defeated Jonesville in four games: 153-176, 160-142, 148-132, 214-158.
“They mean the world to me,” said Bryce Cadaret of his teammates. The championship was an extra gift for the gifted bowler as he celebrated a birthday on the final day of his high school bowling career.
“Perfect birthday present,” he noted.
A senior, Cadaret celebrated the outstanding success that his team has enjoyed but also reflected on the time that will be coming to an end as he faces graduation this year.
“(The team) means everything. I’ve been doing this for more than four years. I’ve been with these guys since sixth grade,” he said. “They mean the world to me. I’m just so happy.”
Cabrini’s success has undoubtedly been the result of the team’s skill; however, the Monarchs’ head coach realizes that the school’s support plays a factor in their current success and the success that the team wishes to have in the future.
“Thank you to the parents, fans and everybody. I don’t know what we would do without them,” said Csernai.
