Madison Heights Bishop Foley senior boys basketball star Mike Oravetz will be buzzing his way west to play his college hoops, signing a National Letter of Intent on Monday with the Kalamazoo College Hornets.

Oravtez, the Ventures' two-year starting point guard, helped take Bishop Foley to back-to-back Catholic League titles and Class C district championships in 2011 and 2012.

Last season, he averaged 14 points, six assists, three rebounds and two steals per game while being named All-CHSL for the second year in a row. This kid's game is the definition of ULTRA STEADY!!! He does whatever is needed of him – shoot from downtown, create off the dribble, lead the fastbreak, run the half-court set,etc.. – and he has a GRADE A motor that never stops going.

Kalamazoo's Men's Basketball program has benefited from the Oakland County talent pool in the past.

The Hornets currently have 5 players on their roster who played their prep ball in the area.

The All-League inside-outside tandem of center Joe Prepolec (BH Andover) and point guard Eric Fishman (BH Cranbrook) has been a catalyst for the team the past two years. Berkley's Travis Braun and Jacob Olds & Troy's Cam Lafayette also dot the K-ZOO lineup.

Head coach Rob Passage and his K-ZOO cage crew are looking to rebound from a disappointing 8-17 overall record this past winter.
