Ron Montri offers a preview of Monday’s Regional semifinal games in today’s Evening News. Be sure to check it out.What I found most amazing about Friday night was how the best players in the region — Josh DuPree of Whiteford, Nic Jobe of Ida and Devon Crain of Flat Rock — all came up huge in tremendous District final games. Evening News staff member Jason Haupricht told me how he was at the Ida game Friday and Kris Hubbard — Whiteford’s longtime coach and wife of Ida varsity boys basketball assistant coach Mark Hubbard — was cheering when Whiteford’s DuPree hit the game winner against Madison. She was listening in on the Adrian radio station WLEN (103.9 FM). Less than a minute later, Jobe hit his game-winner.How cool was it to read in Saturday’s Evening News that two of the best players in the Region hit game-winning shots for their respective teams. And, who would have thought Flat Rock would knock off Grosse Ile twice this season?Congratulations to the teams. Can’t wait for Monday night. I’ll post some pre-game information on the Whiteford-Napoleon game later.
