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 - The Elite Eight Is Here

MHSAA Boys Basketball Quarterfinal Picks
 
Class A
Southfield v. Eastpointe East Detroit (at Calihan Hall)
The Bluejays are peaking at the exact right time. Their experience factor will give them the edge over East Detroit on Tuesday at THE HALL! A little OC math; Southfield's BIG 3 (Brundidge, Barnes, and Onwenu) = NO. 2 FINAL FOUR for 'Jays…..this time Burney smells a state title!!!
Southfield 56, East Detroit 50
Class A
Orchard Lake St. Mary's v. Bay City Western (at Davison)
Two Words; ALLEN ROBINSON….The Eaglets have AL B SURE and Western doesn't. That's the difference and OLSM keeps dancing!!!
Robinson STAYS IN THE ZONE and drops 37, including the game-winning triple as time expires!!!!
OL St. Mary's 62, Bay City Western 60 (OT)
Class B
Birmingham Detroit Country Day v. Flint Powers (at Ferndale)
This is the Class B state championship game, no question about it. Amir Williams goes all AMIR WILLIAMS, erupting for 25 points, 20 rebounds, and six blocks as the Jackets squeak past Powers for the second year straight
DCD 68, Powers 67
