April 14, 2012 Comments { 0 }

Down by five coming into the home half of the seventh inning, things appeared bleak for the Kelloggsville Rockets.  However, following a couple singles here, and a walk there, the Rockets found that they had put Wyoming Park on the ropes, and only needed one more blow to finish their [...]

March 2, 2011 Comments { 0 }

This Class A District, with games being played at Grand Haven, looks to have two clear frontrunners, a solid “Next Best” choice, and then a handful of teams that don’t have a realistic shot at making it out of the District.  Three of the teams in this District hail from [...]

It was a battle of neighbors as the Godwin Heights Fighting Wolverines paid visit to the Kelloggsville Rockets.  The two schools, barely two miles apart, entered the contest sitting 1-2 atop the OK Silver standings and with a victory, the Rockets could enter into a first place tie with the [...]

High quality, professional action prints from the game available from David Chandler Photography. A defensive team through and through, Grand Haven sure does have a knack for starting out on fire.  After giving up the game’s first basket against Reeths-Puffer, the Bucs answered with four three-pointers in rapid succession before [...]

WMA Interview with Reeths-Puffer's Chris Anderson

March 10, 2010 Comments { 0 }

Reeths-Puffer has been a tough team to figure out this season.  On the one hand, they have done some remarkable things against some of the area’s best teams when they play at their peak.  But, on the other hand, they have had difficulty with their fair share of average-to-good teams as [...]

In a thirty-two minute game it’s rare for a team to come back from a 40-13 deficit with 23 minutes left, but Reeths-Puffer (11-8) did exactly that last Friday against Grand Rapids Union. Last night the Reeths-Puffer Rockets didn’t need a big comeback against Greenville (13-8) as they lead most [...]

Last week’s winner: mememememe.  Caption: I think we missed the turn for the luge run. Congrats, mememememe (for the second time)!  Nice work, and way to demonstrate your longevity/versatility. This week we have a relatively hard one, from Grand Rapids Union’s victory over Reeths-Puffer.  It’s either a shot, or a [...]

Complete photos from this game can be found here. In an OK-Black battle Friday night, Grand Rapids Union came out swinging against Reeths Puffer.  The Redhawks built as much as a 15-point lead in the third quarter, only to see it slip away in the fourth.  Thanks to some clutch [...]

Anderson's 27-points not enough for RP to fly with the Eagles

January 20, 2010 Comments { 4 }

The free-throw line was not friendly to Reeths-Puffer in their conference crossover showdown with Grand Rapids Christian on Tuesday, as the Rockets hit only 8-for-17 from the charity stripe. As badly as Reeths-Puffer wanted this to be a game showcasing the unearthly athleticism of senior Toledo-commit Chris Anderson, even his [...]
