Blogs > Burney's Bytes

Burney's Bytes will focus primarily on the local preps sports scene, but will also touch on some college and pro athletics, mostly in regards to athletes who hail and have played high school sports in Oakland County. My goal for the blog is to be conversational and anecdotal, a more relaxed and free formal take on high school athletics than you see in regular game day coverage.

The Great Burnzini - Crunch Time Countdown

Baseball Picks:
RH Adams v. Mt. Clemens L'Anse Creuse North (D1 Quarterfinal) – LCN has quite a situation on its hands with THA SITUATION himself, Adams' Frank Guidice, coming after its pitching staff on Tuesday. Guidice has been ON FIRE all season long from the dish, delving out hardy doses of offensive production practically every game. Last Saturday in the regional final against Clarkston, he had three hits and three RBI, in leading the Highlanders to the crown. THA SITUATION is THE MAN once again, piling up another trifecta of hits and GRADE A CERTIFIED RIBEYE STEAKS as Adams triumphs and starts to pack for Battle Creek.
Adams 6, LCN 5
MH Bishop Foley v. Memphis (D3 Quarterfinal) – Simple as pie in this one: Foley has Danny Zuchowksi, Brett Sunde, Luke "The Stick" Ortell, David Loeffler and The SCHALK BOYZ and Memphis doesn't!!!
Bishop Foley 8, Memphis 4
Quick Sidenote: I have decided to nickname superior sophomore slugger Luke Ortell "The Stick" because this kid is a hitting machine in the clutch, STICKING IT to the comp whenever he can with the game hanging in the balance…..alas game-winning or game-tying pinch-hit RBI for the Ventures twice in the last two weeks.
Softball Picks:
Lakeland v. Howell (D1 Quarterfinal) – The Eagles have been BAD BAD BAD like Michael Jackson this whole season – conference and association titles, sixth straight district and regional banners, not to mention a 36-4 overall record and counting – and on Tuesday they get MAD MAD MAD like Joe Jackson and take their aggression out on arch-rival, Howell. Burney's gonna be like Dawson, Joey and Pacey and will C Y'ALL Ladies at THE CREEK this weekend.
Lakeland 5, Howell 2
Troy v. SH Stevenson (D1 Quarterfinal) – Colts' all-state hurler Jordan Wheatley goes all JORDAN WHEATLEY striking out a dozen or maybe more as Troy punches a ticket to the final four!
Troy 3 Stevenson 1
Birmingham DCD v. Armada (D2 Quarterfinal) – Country Day stud circle spinner Becca Dyer is so FRESH 2 DEATH when she pitches she just KILLZ all opposing batters with her nasty stuff. Dyer doesn't disappoint on Tuesday and the 'Jackets keep stinging!
DCD 4 Armada 0
