Spring may be winding down, but things are just heating up

The spring time is always a weird sports season.
It seems like just as things are getting going, it ends.
After all the recent rain storms and rising temperatures, we are getting to a point were things are starting to get interesting.
Yes, that's right folks, the spring playoff tournaments are getting ready to start.
I know.
It seems like we just got done watching the Ann Arbor Huron basketball team play in the state finals, and now we are talking about spring playoffs.
The area has a lot of teams that have a great chance to do well as the postseason approaches.
The area has two really heavy favorites when it comes to Division 1 track. The Pioneer boys' team has been nothing short of dominant, while the Saline girls' team is also outstanding.
In baseball, Ann Arbor Gabriel Richard has a great chance to win the Divsion 3 state title. As the team prepares for Wednesday's Catholic High School League final, which will be played at Comerica Park, the Fighting Irish are sitting on a 33-1 record. The squad had three to four solid starting pitchers, which, as any high school coach will tell you, is a solid commodity.
When it comes to water polo, Pioneer, Huron and Saline will all compete for the title.
Lacrosse is another sport where Washtenaw County will be well-represented. The Pioneer, Huron and Gabriel Richard teams all have a shot to go deep into the playoffs, while the Dexter Dreadnaughts have improved immensely since the start of the season.
When it comes to soccer, the Pioneers have to be a favorite. The team finished their Southeastern Conference schedule undefeated and are peaking just at the right time.
There are surely no guarantees when it comes to sports, but don't be surprised if the area's teams bring home a couple of state championship trophies for this short season.
