Michigan H.S. wins in first game without fallen star

Only a few days after star basketball player Wes Leonard died of a heart attack immediately following a high school game in which he hit the game-winning shot, Fennville High School (Michigan) returned to the court to play its first playoff game last night.

Fennville took to the court arm-in-arm, with players entering the arena in groups of three. They were led by Mitchell Leonard, Wes' younger brother, who is currently an eighth grader at Fennville middle school.

Fennville beat Lawrence 65-54 but check out the video report below from Fennville's local station, WOOD TV8 for the full story on this incredibly strong team and community:
