So said Jeff Rosenberg, senior co-captain of Andover High School's basketball Barons, in speaking of their season-ending 69-66 loss to Flint Powers Catholic in a Michigan regional tourna- ment game March 17. But he could also be speak- ing for fellow players at West Bloomfield and Southfield- Lathrup, because the Lakers and Chargers, like the Barons, bowed out in regional play after first winning Michigan district tournament basketball championships in this 1991-92 season. West Bloomfield set a season victory record and won the league championship undefeated. And Southfield- Lathrup, runner-up to the Lakers in the league play, captured its first district title in nine years. "It was a tough loss, especially for the seniors," said Rosenberg. But he acknowledged that the An- dover Barons, in their first season under head coach Ed Okuniewski, did far better than expected. Coming off a 2-18 season last year, the Barons went 14-10 and won their first district crown in 14 years. They won the title by defeat- ing host Avondale 78-76, us- ing Rosenberg's last-minute three-point field goal and Ryan Fogelman's two free throws. Although Rosenberg, Mike Laker, rebounding leader Magi Fawaz (7 per game) and second-leading scorer Marcos Zuazu (14.3 average) will graduate, Andover will have back leading scorer Matt Lowman (15.4 average), along with Fogelman, shot-blocker Keith Yarbrough (49 stops) and sophomores Andy Rosen and Jim Hubbard. "It just makes me more ex- cited for next season," said the 6-foot-2 Lowman, who hit 70 percent of his free throws and averaged 6.2 rebounds. West Bloomfield's Lakers, who launched a 23-game win- ning streak after losing their season-opener to Farmington Harrison, avenged that loss March 13 by romping over the Hawks, 66-39, for their third district crown in four years. The Lakers then put away Catholic League champion University of Detroit-Jesuit, . 59-50, in the regional semifinal at West Bloomfield on March 18 to gain the title game against Detroit Northern. But Northern, which stop- ped West Bloomfield in last year's regional final, again proved too much for the Lakers, beating them 51-37 on March 20. Laker Coach Tim Domke thought more fouls should have been called against the hand-checking, inside- bumping Jay Hawks of the Detroit Public School League and said he would protest to the state about the officiating. "The game was called very differently from what all our games were this year," he said. Northern hit on 25 of 36 free throws, West Bloomfield five of nine. Watching a video of the game, he noted that Nor- thern's playing style had its effect: "We weren't patient. We panicked a bit and took long shots." Regardless of the last game, thou4,11, the coach was "very happy with the season. We had the most wins ever (23), it was the first time we went The Andover Barons, in their first season under head coach Ed Okuniewski, did far better than expected. undefeated in the league (Metro Suburban Activities Association) and we won our third district title in four years." The Lakers' 23-2 record broke the 22-2 mark set in 1969, according to Laker first- year assistant coach Barry Bershad. Bershad, who also coaches the Jewish Com- munity Center Varsity team (they also had an unbeaten season this year) was award- ed West Bloomfield's Laker of The Year Award. Coaches Domke and Ber- shad were mentioned among the reasons Laker standout Harley Marks plans to return next season, although his mother wants to move to Florida. "We've got great coaching, I've got great players around me and it's my senior year,"
