SAC Sound-off: Live from Breslin

This week we introduce Portland St. Patrick junior Elle Lehman, who not only assisted with the MHSAA's Class D trophy presentation Saturday -- but also played against eventual champion Waterford Our Lady in Thursday's Semifinal at the Breslin Center.

Elle Lehman, Portland St. Patrick junior

  • Sports: Basketball and softball
  • Non-sports activities: Student council, National Honors Society
  • Favorite classes: World Literature. You have a chance to express your voice in different, creative ways.
  • Must-see TV: "Family Guy” or “That 70s Show”
  • One shining moment: My favorite high school sports highlight would have been in the 1999 Class D girls basketball state championship when there was a few seconds left and St. Pat threw the ball in and it bounced off of someone’s foot, and then we scored!!
  • What’s next: I am not sure what school, but I would like to study pre-medicine and play softball in college – then eventually possibly become an orthopedic surgeon.
  • My favorite part of game day is: ... hearing our fans cheer! I love the atmosphere when you are down on the court and everyone around you is yelling and cheering.

Performance of the Week: Big Rapids' Kate Posey

September 5, 2025

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.
