GAYLORD The North StarLeague recently announcedthe 2011 All-League footballroster and, not surprisingly,undefeated league championMio is well-represented onthe roster along with Atlanta,
which finished 2-3 in theleague and in a third-place
tie with Arenac Eastern andAuGres-Sims.
Mio senior quarterbackand linebacker Grant Price,one of the most dynamic ath-letes to come through theleague ranks in a while, waschosen as a first-team selec-tion on both sides of the ball.
The 6-foot-1, 205-poundPrice rumbled to 1,356 yardsrushing while scoring 20 ofMios touchdowns and alsoreaching the end zone on 18conversion attempts to scorea whopping 156 points. Pricehelped the Thunderbolts topost a 7-3 mark and earn aplayoff berth this season.
Price also connected on 82
of 174 passes for 1,234 yardsand 16 more touchdownsthrough the air. He threw justfour interceptions.
Two other Mio players who were recognized as two-wayfirst-team selections for Mio
were senior lineman EliKoslakiewicz andreceiver/safety Tod Rondo.
The 6-foot-1, 260-poundKoslakiewicz was a force inthe trenches on both sides ofthe ball for the Thunderboltsand a repeat first-team pickon defense. The 5-11, 160-pound Rondo was among theteam leaders as a receiver,
grabbing 27 aerials for 520yards and 11 scores, and as asafety, taking part in 75 tack-les with two interceptions.
Other first-team selectionsfrom Mio on offense includ-ed senior Clarence Smith atrunning back along with sen-ior Christian Norum and jun-ior Nick Mangutz on the line.On defense, Mio had six play-ers including senior tackleTravis Ellis, junior linebacker
Aaron Fox and sophomorecornerback Seth Thomey inaddition to Price,Koslakiewicz and Rondo. The5-11, 150-pound Thomey, acandidate for this yearsSuper Sophomore Award
announced annually as partof the Weekly Choice All-AreaTeam, had six interceptionsand two fumble recoveriesduring the season.
Atlanta had four first-teamplayers on the All-League
roster and nine players alltogether, including secondteam and honorable mentionpicks [see full 2011 NSL All-League roster below].
Huskie junior quarterbackGarrett Badgero was themost prolific passer in theleague and one of the mostaccurate throwers in theentire region. Badgero con-
nected on 121-of-188attempts for 1,906 yards innine games with 19 TDs and11 interceptions. He also hadanother 348 yards rushing.
Badgero was also a first-team pick in the SpecialTeams category for hisbooming punts. Badgeropunted 26 times and aver-aged nearly 40 yards perboot, which is quite good forthe high school level.
Senior receivers JustinKlein and Trenton Janiga
were also a first-team picksfor Atlanta. Klein pulled in 37aerials for 683 yards with 10scores and seven conversions
while Janiga hauled in a
team-high 44 passes for ateam-high 764 yards and sixTDs.
The versatile Klein wasalso second-team at-largepick on defense, where hehad three interceptions and
three fumble recoveries to go with 50 tackles, and a sec-ond-team special teams pickfor his punt and kick returns.
Junior Brock Baum was a
first-team selection for theHuskies at linebacker, wherehis explosive hits not onlyaccounted for a whopping115 tackles this season with
an interception and a fumblerecovery, but also six causedfumbles. Baum obviouslyhits with the force of a bomb.

GRAYLING In the end, itwas just too good an oppor-tunity to pass up.
Grayling senior Zane Tobininked his name to a Letter ofIntent last week to play col-lege hoops for Siena HeightsUniversity at the universitysmain campus in Adrian. Theleft-handed 6-foot-4 pointguard with the soft shot andthe hard-nosed style of playchose Siena Heights becausehe liked everything about it:the campus, the youngcoaches, and especially thein-your-face, up-tempo styleof play that is nearly identicalto Grayling.
And the topper was thattwo of his closest buddiesfrom spring AAU ball Fulton Middleton seniorsCory Hungerford and Tyler
Waldon are also planning toplay hoops there.
It was the whole package,Zane said in a phone inter-view on Monday eveningafter practice. The coaching
staff was really welcoming tome when I went down thereand the campus was greatand the whole atmosphere ofthe place. The buildings arenice and the campus is com-pact but spread out at thesame time.
Plus, I like the way theyplay basketball and two ofmy buddies from AAU aregoing there.
Tobin certainly has thetools to be a high-impactplayer for the Saints, who arepart of the NAIA and play inthe highly competitive
Wolverine-Hoosier AthleticConference along with
Aquinas, Concordia,Cornerstone, Davenport,Madonna, NorthwesternOhio, University ofMichigan-Dearborn andIndiana Tech.
Last year, Zane helpedGrayling post a 19-5 recordand win the schools first dis-trict championship since2005 with his accurate shoot-ing, his pinpoint passing andhis up-close-and-personal
defensive pressure. Tobinsstats reveal a strong, deter-mined all-around player whoknows how to find openspaces to shoot and who alsoknows how to make everyonearound him on the floor bet-ter.
Tobin averaged 14 pointslast season as the startingpoint guard while hitting 48percent of his 2-point shotsand a whopping 41 percentof his 3-point attempts. He
was unselfish, notching 3.3assists per game for the up-tempo Vikings and he waszealous on defense, too, aver-aging 2 steals per game.
Grayling coach Rich Moffitbelieves Tobin is just the kindof player the Saints programis looking for from theirrecruits.
This is a great fit for Zane,both academically and ath-letically, Moffit said. Zanehas spent countless hours inthe gym and its great to seehim rewarded for his hard
work.Tobin can play shooting
guard and wing as well as thepoint. His most likely role atSiena Heights will be a 2-3combination, allowing him
the opportunity to make thetwine dance from theperimeter and also make thedeadly penetrations to thehole that Viking fans are soaccustomed to seeing.
Tobin is pumped, ofcourse.
Its really exciting, he
said. They have youngcoaches there who are reallygood at communicating andtheres a lot of energy in theprogram. Their style is exact-ly like what coach Moffit runs
with in-your-face defenseand pushing the ball downthe floor.
Tobin will have an oppor-tunity to vie for a varsity posi-tion as a freshman, thoughmost freshmen play JV theirfirst year. Either way, Zaneplans to apply himself fromthe start and do whatever isnecessary to keep improving
every facet of his game andput himself in position tohelp when called upon.
As for the coming highschool hoops season, Zane isreally pumped about that,too. With several playersreturning from last yearshighly successful team suchas fellow seniors Steven Enos,Riley Zigila and 6-foot-8 cen-ter Griffin Dean, among oth-ers, there is naturally loads ofoptimism.
The seniors have talked with coach Moffit and ourmain goals are to get the Lake
Michigan championship,repeat as district champs andget back to the regionalfinals, he said. Hopefully
well get the chance to faceCadillac again (in the region-al finals) and get somerevenge.
Tobin says he hasnt set anypersonal goals in terms ofscoring or any other stats.
I dont care how manypoints I score a game as longas we win, he said. My No. 1goal is to lead the team atpoint guard. Its all about the
wins, not the stats.

KALKASKA The Inland
Lakes girls ran into a verytough opponent in the Class
C regional semifinals held atKalkaska last Tuesday, Nov.
8. The Bulldogs, who hadreversed three regular-sea-
son losses and beatJohannesburg-Lewiston to win the district title, faced
Pine River in the regionalround and lost 24-26, 25-15,
25-20, 25-12.I-Lakes, which finished
with a 13-21-9 mark,stunned the favored Bucks
in game one of the semifi-
nals, edging them by two
points. After Pine River cameback to take game two hand-
ily, I-Lakes battled the Bucksto the wire before losing the
critical game three.Pine River improved to 41-
12-5 with the win andadvanced to the regional
finals on Thursday, Nov. 10,against Charlevoix. TheRayders prevailed to earn a
berth in the Class C quarter-finals against Houghton out
of the U.P.Outside hitter Sandy
Bischoff, who has been inblast mode all season for I-
Lakes, helped lead the way
in the Pine River match with
five kills. Rebecca Hunt,another chief cog in the
Bulldog wheel of progress in2011, also hammered out
five kills to go with a team-high 21 digs in the back row
and four service aces.Katelynn Brendly aided
the Bulldog cause as well,lacing four kills with threeaces and setter Emily
Griffore generated nineassists. Sarah Bodner cov-
ered the back row like a freshcoat of wax, collecting 16
digs in the match, andBriana Burrus was all over
the place as well, making 13
digs. Sarah Kolb sent sizzling
missiles from the stripe dur-
ing her turns, recording
three aces on the day.
I-Lakes coach Stormy
Dickinson acknowledged
that her team went into the
tournament as an underdog
but the girls played with pas-
sion and purpose and hadnothing to hang their heads
about after the season-end-
ing loss.
The girls set the goal to
be here (at regionals) and
they made it, Dickinson
said. They did well regard-
less of what the score was.
Viking season ends inCadillac in Class B regional
semifinal match onTuesday, Nov. 8, against the
home team
CADILLAC The road
came to an end for the
Grayling volleyball team on
Tuesday, Nov. 8. The Vikings
of coach Jessica Szymoniak
faced host Cadillac in the
Class B regional semifinalsand lost in three games.
It was still a notable seasonfor the Vikings, who captured
the district title the week
before with a hard-fought
victory over Roscommon in
the finals.
The 2011 Grayling team
featured super setter Josie
Swander with cool Rachel
Cooper, Cara Miller and
Cierra Prosser firing missiles
up front while Elaine
DesEnfants and Shanley
Dorn, among others, were
diving all over the place tomake saves in the back row.
The 2011 Viking rosterincluded Madi Juntilla, Sarah
Goodyer, Stanna Dorn,
August Ledesma, Marilyn
Jankowski and Shanley Dorn
in addition to Cooper, Miller,
Swander, Prosser and
DesEnfants.

How MuchInsulation Do IAlready Have?
Compliments of Ed Wohlfiel
Look into your attic. We start
with the attic because it is usually
easy to add insulation to an attic.
Look into your walls. It is difficult
to add insulation to existing walls
unless: You are planning to add new
siding to your house, or You plan to
finish unfinished space (like a base-
ment or bonus room).
If so, you need to know whether
the exterior walls are already insu-
lated or not. One method is to use
an electrical outlet on the wall, but
first be sure to turn off the power to
the outlet. Then remove the coverplate and shine a flashlight into the
crack around the outlet box. You
should be able to see whether or
not insulation is in the wall. Also,
you should check separate outlets
on the first and second floor, and in
old and new parts of the house,
because wall insulation in one wall
doesn't necessarily mean that it's
everywhere in the house. An alter-
native to checking through electri-
cal outlets is to remove and then
replace a small section of the exteri-
or siding.
Look under your floors. Look at
the underside of any floor over an
unheated space like a garage, base-
ment, or crawlspace. Inspect and
measure the thickness of any insu-
lation you find there. It will most
likely be a fiberglass batt, so multi-
ply the thickness in inches by 3.2 to
find out the R-value (or the R-value
might be visible on a product label).
If the insulation is a foam board or
sprayed-on foam, use any visible
label information or multiply the
thickness in inches by 5 to estimate
the R-value.
Look at your ductwork. Don't
overlook another area in your home
where energy can be saved - the
ductwork of the heating and air
conditioning system. If the ducts of
your heating or air-conditioning
system run through unheated or
uncooled spaces in your home,
such as attic or crawlspaces, then
the ducts should be insulated. First
check the ductwork for air leaks.
Repair leaking joints first withmechanical fasteners, then seal any
remaining leaks with water-soluble
mastic and embedded fiber glass
mesh. Never use gray cloth duct
tape because it degrades, cracks,
and loses its bond with age. If a
joint has to be accessible for future
maintenance, use pressure- or
heat-sensitive aluminum foil tape.
Then wrap the ducts with duct wrap
insulation of R-6 with a vapor
retarder facing on the outer side. All
joints where sections of insulation
meet should have overlapped fac-
ings and be tightly sealed with fiber
glass tape; but avoid compressing
the insulation, thus reducing its
thickness and R-value.
Return air ducts are often locat-
ed inside the heated portion of the
house where they don't need to beinsulated, but they should still be
sealed off from air passageways that
connect to unheated areas. Drywall
to ductwork connections should be
inspected because they are often
poor (or nonexistent) and lead to
unwanted air flows through wall
cavities. If the return air ducts are
located in an unconditioned part of
the building, they should be insu-
lated.
Look at your pipes. If water pipes
run through unheated or uncooled
spaces in your home, such as attic
or crawlspaces, then the pipes
should be insulated.
1949 Gingell Road, Johannesburg, MIListed by Ed Wohlfeil and Brian Jergenson of Keith Dressel Realty (KDR) (989) 732-1707
Real Estate
By Jim Akans
This is an amazing real estate offering. Located just a few miles
northeast of the town of Johannesburg, this Northern Michigan coun-
try estate features a gorgeous two-story home and a huge pole build-
ing set upon 160 acres of rolling terrain that features a mix woodlandsand open areas.
From the arrival at the gated entry located off a paved country road,
its just a short way down the winding driveway to the vistas that open
into a panorama of rolling hills, open grazing lands, woodlands of
hardwoods and pines, and a beautiful two-story traditional style home
beyond. With a quarter section of land, this is a setting that not only
offers incredible beauty and abundant wildlife, it could easily provide
a lifestyle of self-sufficiency with a limitless supply of wood for heat-
ing, ample areas for grazing livestock and horses (the property is
fenced), and plenty of room left over for vegetable gardening.
The home, which was custom built in 1998, offers over 2,700 square
feet of living space on the main two levels, plus a huge walkout base-
ment, with extra height 13-block walls, that could be finished into
additional living area. There are four bedrooms on the upper level,
including a large master bedroom suite with walk-closet and adjoin-
ing bath featuring a garden style tub and separate shower. Each of the
remaining three bedrooms are generously sized, and there is an addi-
tional full bath on the upper level as well.
The main floor is highlighted by a family room with wood stove, a
formal living room with a gas fed fireplace and hardwood flooring that
extends into the adjoining dining area. The kitchen is open to the din-
ing area, and features cabinetry and appliances with pristine white
finishes, and a convenient main level laundry and utility area located
adjacent to the kitchen space. The main level also includes a full bath-
room.
Other highlights of this home include beautiful, solid wood six-
panel doors throughout the interior, energy efficient Pella brand win-
dows, a central alarm system, and a covered wrap-around porch the
leads to a huge wrap-around open deck area.
The pole building is absolutely enormous, with plenty of space to
store an RV, vehicles, grounds maintenance equipment, and more.
What an amazing country estate. This beautiful home and expan-
sive property is listed at $758,000.
