Wyandotte secured a share of the Downriver League title this year when the team went 8-1, losing only to Woodhaven 64-36 on Sept. 28. The 2012 title is split with Taylor Truman and Woodhaven, as those teams also ended with 8-1 records. And now, two of those teams could battle it out in the second round of the playoffs.

The winner of the Wyandotte v Woodhaven game will then face the winner of the Allen Park v Taylor Truman playoff game.

Wyandotte made it to the playoffs last year, as well, but lost to Detroit Martin Luther King in the regional round.
