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.

Burney's Boys Hoops Rankings - Long December

OC Top 10
1 Clarkston – The 2012 Wolfpack's depth, leadership and overall tenacity and playmaking could easily culminate into a trip for C-Town to the BRESLIN Center in March…..Mark that down!!
2 Birmingham DCD – Sophomore guard Edmund Sumner is a budding star in the backcourt for the ever-lethal KEENER KAGE KREW!!
3 Pontiac – If you want to see a sample of perfect form on a jump shot, come out to 'Yaktown and check out Phoenix senior sniper Jamerea Samples, possibly the best outside shooter in the area!!!
4 WL Western – Warriors junior point guard Korey Wade looked more like Dwayne Wade on Friday night against Brighton, burying the game-winner against the Bulldogs as time expired
5 (tie) Troy Athens – Marcarius Coakley might be the most exciting player in the OC that not a lot of people know about….his averaging 27 points and 10 rebounds in the Red Hawks last two wins doesn't hurt his case either
5 (tie) Troy – Expect a breakout game from Colts senior center Leo Aryault very soon!!! TAKE IT 2 THE BANK!
6 Southfield-Lathrup – The Chargers three-guard assault of "Jon Jon" Williams, Jordan Denham and Ben Benford will cause headaches for opposing OAA Red coaches all season long….COUNT ON IT!!!
7 Madison Heights Bishop Foley – You cannot stop the Foley guard tandem of Mike Oravetz and Max Aleshire, you can only hope to contain them!!!!
8 Novi Detroit CC – Burney knows the Shamrocks' football-lagged hoops squad will round into form very soon following some early-season struggles scoring the basketball
9 OL St. Mary's – I call junior Eaglets guard Sam McClendon……wait for it……….."McClutch"
10 North Farmington – Having a hard time figuring out if the Raiders' Sterling Sharp's game on the hardwood can be better categorized  as more sterling or sharpe?
