TVC East honors

  Both Frankenmuth varsity basketball programs enjoyed stellar seasons, despite the abrupt ending that came March 12 from the Michigan High School Athletic Association (MHSAA).

  The Lady Eagles had 19 wins and five losses and at least had the opportunity to win a MHSAA Division 2 District crown. The regional title was not an option, with the Covid-19 pandemic outbreak and a chance at redemption against Freeland; it would have been their third meeting of the year.

  The Eagle boys were 19-3 overall and dealt Tri-Valley Conference East Division 2020 champion Bridgeport their lone regular-season loss. With two district wins, they also had a shot at a third time is the charm contest against the Bearcats. That, too, was iced by the coronavirus.

  While some post-season awards are still yet to be announced, the Tri-Valley Conference East Division named its All-TVC East players last week.

  For the Lady Eagles, freshmen Lexi Boyke landed on the first team. Senior Kelynn Kujat and sophomore Zoey Persails were named to the second team and senior Brooklin Karwat and sophomore Emma Kerkau were honorable mention choices.

  For the Eagles, senior Corey Thompson and junior Ryan Brenner were first-team choices, with junior Ben Reinert picked for the second team and junior Ethan Jacobs was an honorable mention choice.
