District Predictions And MVP’s: Part 3

The District draws have been released so it’s time for predictions. I will give you predictions for each game as well as a District Most Valuable Player. I’d like to preface this by saying that these are just predictions. If I don’t pick your team it doesn’t mean I don’t think that you’re good or have no chance of winning. Heck, I’ll probably be wrong 50% of the time. So, have fun, check them out, and leave a comment if you have a different perspective. <h2>District 18</h2> <em>QUARTERFINALS</em> Saline vs. Belleville Prediction:  Saline Ypsilanti vs. Ann Arbor Huron Prediction:  Ann Arbor Huron <em>SEMIFINALS</em> Saline vs. Ypsilanti-Lincoln Prediction:  Saline Ann Arbor Huron vs. Ann Arbor Pioneer Prediction:  Ann Arbor Huron <em>CHAMPIONSHIP</em> Saline vs. Ann Arbor Huron Prediction:  Saline MVP:  <strong><a href="https://prepgirlshoops.com/player/ella-stemmer/">[player_tooltip player_id="27971" first="Ella" last="Stemmer"]</a> (2021, SG, Saline)</strong> This final matchup would be worthy of an instant classic.
