What Jonathan Sanderson and his team have accomplished in their first 3 games is truly remarkable at Saline. As a kid, I grew up watching a basketball player named Mark Brown from Hastings, Michigan in the mid 80’s. He and his team provided a similar experience for the Hastings community. Go Hornets!
