Preview: Regional 10

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The Michigan high school basketball playoffs have reached regional play. There is some top notch talent in every region. We're going to look at Division 2's Regional 10.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>SEMIFINALS:</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Shepherd vs. Flint Powers Catholic</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>This is an intriguing game as there were really no comparative points to look at. I said to some people at a showcase way back in November that Powers Catholic was building something special. I'm willing to stick by that.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Prediction: Flint Powers Catholic</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Saginaw vs. Saginaw Arthur Hill</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>This is a prime time matchup, with repeat of a final game of a historic rivalry. There are elite athletes and playmakers all over the floor in this one. Arthur Hill won by a score of 84-52 in the first matchup.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Prediction: Saginaw</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>FINALS:</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Flint Powers Catholic vs. Saginaw Arthur Hill</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Can I say "Pick em"? I won't do that to you, but this does look like an instant classic. Powers Catholic took the first matchup in early January by a score of 72-67. If Arthur Hill can get their athletes in space and successfully force pressure on Powers, they can avenge the defeat.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Prediction: Flint Powers Catholic</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>PLAYERS TO WATCH:</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":["not_in_db"],"_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_0_player_details_selected_featured_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_selected_featured_image":"field_62cca28ffa4e7","player_evaluations_0_player_details_player_name":"Colton Dysinger","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_player_name":"field_62aba4c9ecf2f","player_evaluations_0_player_details_graduating_class":"2024","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_graduating_class":"field_62aba4ddecf30","player_evaluations_0_player_details_height":"6'0u0022","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_height":"field_62aba4e8ecf31","player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"77246","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"field_62aba4f0ecf32","player_evaluations_0_player_details_school":"Shepherd","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_school":"field_62aba4fdecf33","player_evaluations_0_player_details_club_team":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_club_team":"field_62d20e723441a","player_evaluations_0_player_details":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_details":"field_62aba4afecf2e","player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"If Shepherd wants to beat Powers Catholic they'll have to have tremendous guard play.
