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.

I hope that Clarkston's early  exit from the girls hoops tourney doesn't take Wolves superstar Erika Davenport out of the race for  Miss Basketball. 
        She could easily be the best  player in the state right now. Playing in a beast of a conference (OAA RED),  Davenport averaged 23 points and 13 rebounds per night. Throughout the past  three years, she's been practically unstoppable.
        Burney wishes she could have had  a longer March Madness run and prays it doesn't bounce her from the Miss BBall  comp. Either way, the Marquette-bound Davenport goes down as an all-time great  in Oakland County, after bringing home Class A Player of the Year honors last  year as only a junior. The OC has had two Miss Basketballs in its history: and they came in back-to-back campaigns when Birmingham Marian's Jennifer Shasky and Birmingham DCD's Peggy Evans accepted the prestigious award in 1989 and 1990, respectively.
        The finalists for the 2015 Miss  Basketball trophy:
        Erika Davenport (Clarkston)
        Tania Davis (Goodrich)
        Cierra Rice (GP South)
        Kalabrya Gondrezick (Benton  Harbor)
        Pressley Hudson (Wayland)
