The boys cross coun-try program at Ferndaleis reaching new heights.That progress was nevermore evident than at theDivision 2 regional meetOct. 29 at Metro BeachMetropark.The Eagles placed third

and qualified for thestate meet (held Satur-day at the MIS Speedwayin Brooklyn after thisnewspaper went to press)for just the third time inschool history.Detroit Country Day

won the regional with

59 points. BloomfieldHills Lahser (60) placedsecond and the Eaglesgrabbed the third andfinal team-qualify-ing spot with 98 points.Bloomfield Hills Ando-ver scored 110 points tofinish fourth.“It doesn’t happen very

often at Ferndale, butlightning struck here forus this year,” head coachRick Piornack said.“I figured Lahser would

win and Country Day wasthe teamwe would chase,and if we did that wecould be second behindLahser. The worst-casescenario was that wewould be fourth.“But Country Day won

and we ended up reach-

ing a happymedium bytaking third place,” hesaid. “I expected to beamong the top three so Iwasn’t surprised at howwe finished.”The young Eagles had

just two seniors amongtheir top seven regionalrunners.Junior Leo Kopack,

also a soccer playerwho transferred intothe Ferndale system asa sophomore, paced theFerndale contingent witha time of 17:17.0 whichwas good for ninth placeoverall. SophomoreMikeMurray was among thetop 15 regional runnerswith a 15th-place time of

Although a relative-ly young team in terms ofvarsity experience,Roy-alOak’s boys cross coun-try teambelieved in its col-lective talents before theseason.At a preseason team

training campupnorth,theRavens set their goalsof challenging for a leaguechampionship and advanc-ing to the state finals.Theyknewwhat they

were talking about.After running to the

OAABlueDivision’s undis-puted overall champion-ship, RoyalOak showedeveryone itwas for realby earning a state-qualify-ing berth at theDivision1 regionalmeetOct. 29 inWaterford.Competing on the chal-

er about the return trip tostates (scheduled forNov.5 inBrooklyn after thispaperwent to press).

“In the summer,wegofor a training campupnorth andwe sit aroundthe campfire andwe talkabout individual and teamgoals,” saidRoyalOak’s co-head coachRyanPiippo onTuesday afternoon at prac-

tice. “Almost every guymade it their teamgoal towin the league and to qual-ify for the statemeet.“We just bonded as a

team this year. I know theother teamswhoquali-fied (for states)were real-

ly happy onSaturday (atthe regional), but our guyswere just ecstatic. Youcould just see it in theirfaces as they collectedtheirmedals.

As time passes, theClawson Trojans willhave a better perspectiveon the recent footballseason than they did lastweek, according to coachJim Sparks.Just days after a sea-

son-ending loss in the

playoffs, the sting ofdefeat was still fresh,and it was difficult forthem to see the big pic-ture.“Like any seasonwhen it

ends, you’re disappointed,but I’m sure as the dayspass andwe can reflecton it, we’ll findwe had alot of thingswe accom-plished,” Sparks said.

“The last couple yearswe lost some key kidsand had other kids stepup. I’m as proud as I canbe of our kids and theseniors in particular.“We were glad to get

six wins and competefor a league champion-ship. Getting to play inthe playoffs was a greathighlight for the kids.Hats off to them. As thedays go by, we’ll remem-ber more good thingsthan we do the loss.”Clawson had its sixth

consecutive winning sea-son, finishing with a 6-4 record, was the MACBronze Division runner-up and made the playoffsfor the second straightyear.The Trojans had hoped

to stay longer in thestate tournament, buthost Almont had thesame objective Oct. 28.The Raiders, who werethe top seed in the Divi-sion 5 district, knocked

17:30.0.Junior Darrell Strong-

Staple was 23rd over-all (18:18), senior JohnAkers placed 25th (18:22)and sophomore JoshHughes was 26th (18:30).Junior SeanMcQuee-

ney and senior DevinChartier, another soccerplayer, placed 47th and48th, respectively.Akers, a three-year var-

sity veteran, is the teamcaptain who leads byexample, Piornack said.“He’s a real dedicat-

ed runner who is more

about the team than him-self,” said Piornack, whoalso coaches the distancemembers of Ferndale’strack team. “Some peo-ple on our teammay bedoing better, but they areinspired by all the hardwork and time that Johnputs in to improve him-self.”Ferndale placed fourth

in both the OAA BlueDivision Jamborees andat the league meet andfinished behind RoyalOak, Berkley and Farm-ington Harrison in thefinal team standings.The Eagles’ best invi-

tational showing was atthe Hanson Invitationalwhere they placed third.

“On paper, prior to theregional, you would havethought that we weregoing to finish 10th or11th,” said Piornack, whotook over the programthree years ago withfive runners — it nowboasts 22. “But, I knewthe kind of workouts thekids were putting in and Icould see that they weregetting it together.“We finally had a meet

where everyone had adecent race at the sametime. That’s why we wereable to place third at theregional.“Things are starting to

go in the right direction.Our athletes are startingto come around.”

“Theyknew thiswas ateameffort, and itwasn’tjust about an individual.The guyswerewaymorehappy to go as a teamandto know that theydid thistogether. Basically down toa guy, they had their bestrace of the season (at theregional).”RoyalOakwas led by

freshmannewcomerBenHillwhoplaced seventhat the regional in 16:43.60.JuniorMaxBenoit, afreshmanon the state-qualifying team twoyearsago,was second on theteamand eighth overall atthe regional in 16:49.40.Senior Leonard Jack-

son, anothermember ofthe 2009 team,was 13thoverall in 17:06.40. SeniorAdamQuinnwas 16th(17:13.70) and juniorWil-lieDavids placed 46th(18:23.20).SeniorsDanDobras and

JoeLedford also ran at theregional, finishing 65thand 67th, respectively.“Itwas a rugged course,

soweweren’t necessari-ly expecting personal-besttimes fromeveryone,”Piippo said. “But nine ofthe 14 guyswho ran in therace ran their best times,and the other guyswereright there.“Everyone hadgreat rac-

es and that right there tellsyouhowmuch theyputinto it andhowmuch theytrusted the training thatthey did. That’s how theywere ready to perform.Wedidn’t really surprise our-selves, but from the reac-tion of someof the coacheswhowere congratulatingus, I thinkwe surprisedsomeother teams.”All ofRoyalOak’s varsi-

ty experience this fall orig-

inateswith its trio of cap-tains. Jackson is a four-year varsity runner andDobras andBenoit arethree-year varsitymem-bers.Ledford andDavids are

in their first varsity sea-sons.“There’s a story for

every guy on our team—one through seven I cantell you something,” Piipposaid. “Wehave everyonefromaguywho just start-ed running for the firsttime inAugust (Davids)to a freshmanwho endedupbeing our number oneguy to a four-year runnerwho just plugged away andplugged away.“We really had a good

mix on the team.Wehadgood leaders fromguyswhohavebeen around theblock to guyswhowerereally green andhadnocross country experience,butwere talented. They alljust brought it this year.”RoyalOak,with that

young lineup,won all threeOAABlue Jamborees. TheRavens placed second attheCenter Linemeet anddidwell in the highly com-petitivemeets atHolly andJackson.“We just preached to the

guys to go out there andrun the very best race youcan. That’s allwe can con-trol,” Piippo said. “It justso happened that us run-ning our best race got usinto the statemeet. Theyreally improved this sea-son.“It’s been a great year,

not just becausewequal-ified for states,” he said.“This is a great group ofguys and this is just oneof those teamswhere youdon’twant the season toend.”

the Trojans out of theplayoffs with a 54-14loss.Clawson was down ear-

ly after Almont scoredon the opening drive. TheTrojans were stopped ondowns in Raider territo-ry, and Almont drove fora second touchdown anda quick, 13-0 lead.“Going into it, we felt

real confident,” Sparkssaid. “We had a greatweek of practice. Wewere excited to go northand play someone new.“They seized the

momentum early, andwe started to feel a littlepressure and panicked.It snowballed from there.They gained confidenceand we lost it, and thenext thing we were head-ing home.“The credit goes to

Almont and its coach-ing staff. We were not asgood as they were, and

we wish them the best ofluck as they move for-ward.”Clawson will lose a doz-

en or so seniors, manyof whomwere starters,all of whom “contributedin one form or another,”according to Sparks.Lineman James Steffen

and multi-purpose backDeShawn Gilbert werethree-year starters andtwo-way players. Otherkey seniors were Deon-te Hill, Greg Gmeiner,Jalen Harrison and Rog-er Forney.“Obviously, it’ll be

tough to replace thoseguys, but we alwaysmanage to find a way,”Sparks said.Ten players will return

to the varsity, and theTrojans fill out the line-up with players fromthis year’s 4-4-1 jayveeteam, which was unbeat-en against MAC Bronzeopponents.“We’ve already met

with (next year’s varsityplayers) after we turnedthe seniors loose,” Sparks

said. “We tell themthey’re now the seniorsin the program and, fromthis day forward, theydictate what the programis like.“We have the same

expectations as everyother team. We expect tocompete; we expect to bein the playoffs. The sea-son has already start-ed. We’ll get them in theweight room next week.Hopefully, they can put itall together, and we canhave continued success.“In the next eight

months, that’s when theleaders will evolve andkids will step up, andthey’ll earn the trust oftheir peers and coaches.Those are the kids whoultimately will put theirstamp on the program.“Every kid who was

on varsity and is comingback has the opportunityto influence the directionof the team. It’s wheth-er or not they take advan-tage of that opportunity.They determine the atti-tude and expectations.”

As onemight expect, it was difficultforAndover senior forwardWillNeff todigestWednesday’s season-ending defeatinAuburnHills.Playing in theDivision 2 boys soccer

state semifinal game for the first time inschool history, theBarons could not sur-vive a staggering second-half onslaughtby hostAvondale and suffered a heart-breaking 2-1 loss.The stinging setback brought a pain-

ful halt to a thrilling state-tournament runthat fell just one victory short of playingfor the first state boys soccer champion-ship in programhistory.Andover had never beforewon a dis-

trict title in the 30 years that theMichi-ganHigh SchoolAthleticAssociation hassponsored the popular post-season tour-nament.However, posting that first district title,

the first regional crown and advancing tothe Final Four for the first time everwasthe furthest thing fromNeff’smind as thefinal horn signaled the end to amarvelousseason and stellar prep career.

Overcoming adversityNeff,who overcame some toughknee

injuries to leadAndover’s exciting post-season run, nonetheless attempted to putthememorable fall in perspective.“Itwas a great senior season.Wehad 12

seniors on the teamand I’m really proudof the guys this year,” saidNeff, a four-year varsity playerwho served as a teamcaptain the past two years. “We’ve been inand out of injuries all year and I feel like

wenever had a full teamuntil the play-offs.“Wegot our roster back healthy at the

right time, and I couldn’t be prouderbecausewe left it all out on the field. It’sbeen a really satisfying season. You can’ttake away the opportunity you have infront of you.“It’s never easy to lose, but I’m really

proud of the guys thatwegot this far,” hesaid. “You can’t point your finger at any-one.Wewin as a teamandwe lose as ateam.And, I thinkwehandled itwell.”Neff nettedAndover’s lone goal against

Avondale.Just 10minutes into the game,Neff

used his size and strength to outmusclehis defender and set up his scoring oppor-tunity. Once he found some free space,Neff booted the ball along the ground andinto the far side of the net pastAvondalegoalieBenRichter.

A ‘wonderful’ leaderItwasAndover’s first shot on goal and

first good scoring opportunity of thegame.Neff didn’tmiss it as he registeredhis team-leading 15th goal of the sea-son.Neff scored in every playoff gameand finishedwith 19 points on the season

counting his four assists.“Will is a terrific youngman,” said

Andover assistant coachAaron Seaton,a 1998Andover grad and formerBaronssoccer captain. “Hewas one of our threecaptainswho showed leadership through-out the year.“He’s had to battle injuries his entire

career.Hemissed all of his sophomoreseason and battled a lot of adversity.He’sshowed a lot ofwill withwhat he’s gonethrough.“And I think the teampicked up emo-

tionally fromwhat he’s been through overthe years,” said Seaton. “The team fed offthat.Hewas awonderful leader for usboth on and off the field.”

An outstanding seasonAndover finished its outstanding sea-

sonwith a 13-7-3 overall record. TheBar-ons tied for second—withAvondale— intheOaklandActivitiesAssociationWhiteDivisions standings behind championFarmington.TheBarons playedwithout a few

banged-up starters and dropped theirfinal two games of the regular season toAvondale andBloomfieldHills CranbrookKingswood.

However,withmany of those playersreturning for the playoffs, theBaronswon five straight games before falling toAvondale.Andover posted its district titlewith

wins over SouthLyonEast, RedfordUnion andCranbrookKingswood. In theregional, theBarons did not allow agoalin defeatingTrenton and St. Clair ShoresLake Shore.That set up their rubber-matchwith

Avondale— the teams split their two reg-ular-season games— in the semifinals.Although it didn’t go theirway in the

end, veteran head coachGeoff Parkinsonwas satisfiedwith his team’s season over-all.“In 1978 the schoolwon a state title (in

the old coaches association sponsorshipprior to theMHSAA takeover), but it’scertainly a lot harder to get this far now-adays,” said Parkinson. “There’s a lot ofparity and there are a lot of great teamsout there.“We always felt likewe could have been

here before ifweweren’t always in oneof themost difficult districts in the state.And I think this year proved it. Oncewegot out of our districtwemade a nicerun.”
