• Rule of threes: Gull Lake boys volleyball finding stride in third year of program (wwmt.com) — Richland’s Gull Lake boys volleyball team is surging in just its third season, starting 6-1 as boys volleyball becomes an official MHSAA state championship sport this spring. Players say their biggest growth has come from learning to adjust mid-game, and they’re aiming to be among the first programs to bring a state title home.
