Shake My Head at Grand Haven. Holland beat them. Yes, THAT Holland.

Grand Haven is going to be horrible this year after that loss. Holland tends to play GH tough because it's an old rivalry, but when you lose that bad to a team that's won 8 games TOTAL in the last 9 seasons, that's a joke. Before tonight, the only team Holland had beaten since 2002 was Zeeland East, another terrible team. I guess Zeeland East also pulled off an upset over Forest Hills Eastern tonight. So the two worst programs in the Grand Rapids area pulled off unlikely wins. But wow...I knew GH was going to be bad, but not so bad they'd lose by 15 to Holland.

Other surprises in the Grand Rapids area...
- EGR destroying OLSM. Everything being said about EGR was that they were having a hard time coming together as a team, so I thought OLSM would pull this off, but EGR won in more than convincing fashion.
- Caledonia only beating EK by 7 in a shootout. I take this as either Caledonia won't be as good as usual or EK is much improved. We won't know the answer to that until conference play starts.
- GRCC upsetting GRWC...I thought West Catholic had taken over as the dominant catholic school with the departure of GRCC's coach to TC Central, but GRCC took back its pride tonight in that huge rivalry.
- Calvin Christian beating South Lyon East by 22 points...I know it's a new school, new team...but I would've thought that SLE's players would be at least decent considering they played at South Lyon High before the new school was built. Calvin has been bad for quite a while...So this could either be a sign that Calvin will have a better than usual, or SLE is in for a long season.
