The Division 2, 3 and 4 Michigan state playoffs each have 8 teams left standing. Every team in each bracket has a solid roster with talented players and a legitimate claim at a state title. Here are my predictions for each divisions quarterfinal round.
<h2>DIVISION 2</h2>
<h4>2 PLAYERS TO WATCH</h4>
<strong>Elisha Dykstra (2024, SF, West Catholic)</strong>
Dykstra is one of best young pure passers off the wing in the state. She’s a difference maker defensively as well.

McLaughlin is one of the most improved players in the state. She’s become a top notch playmaker.
