One Step from a District Final
Unbeaten Napoleon set to host upset-minded Concord in girls playoff action By Mike Moore Staff Writer Napoleon – Rick Saldana knows the gravity of the challenge his Concord girls basketball team faces later this afternoon. He also understands the reality of playoff basketball. Saldana and the Yellowjackets head to Napoleon at 5:30 p.m. this afternoon to face the unbeaten Pirates in a Class C district semifinal. “Our philosophy is any team can be beat on any given day,” Saldana said. “They are unbeaten, but not unbeatable.” Napoleon improved to 21-0 with Monday’s 41-24 victory against Grass Lake. Concord, now 12-9, got past Michigan Center 45-36. “It comes down to us playing as a team,” Saldana said. “We need everyone to be involved.” Lindsey Lehman (18.8 points per game to go with 5.3 rebounds and 4.6 assists) is the focal point of Concord’s attack, and Napoleon coach Steve Smoyer knows that. “The key word is ‘trying’ to slow her down,” Smoyer said. “We’re very aware of her speed and what she can do.

A star in every season
Concord’s Lehman has seen and done just about everything on the field of play By Mike Moore Staff Writer Concord – From as soon as she can remember, she’s been right there, the little girl on the sideline, just trying to fit in, the team manager with the parent as head coach. She’d help her mom in volleyball, her dad with the boys basketball team. That was before she actually had the chance to shine at Concord High. Since then, well, senior Lindsey Lehman has redefined individual success while serving as the integral part of some of the school’s best teams the past four years. “It’s been fun,” Lehman said about her upbringing around the Concord athletic department and her time as a main component of it. “I’m always busy, but it’s been a lot of hard work. The summers and offseason include so much work to get ready for everything I’ve done. But I’ve been in the gym with my parents ever since I was a baby. I never stopped playing something growing up.” It certainly paid off, as her athletic resume weighs heavily on the impressive end. As a freshman,…
