All-UP High School Boys Basketball Teams Named


The Upper Peninsula Sportswriters and Sportscasters Association announced the All-U.P. boys basketball teams Friday night. The teams were picked by the region's sports media to recognize the top players for the regular season, which ended on March 6.

The district tournaments began the following Monday, but before championship games were played on Friday the 13th, the games were suspended, and then, three weeks later, officially cancelled by the Michigan High School Athletic Association.
