Dexter 54, Ferndale 40
Story | Boxscore
Dexter (7-0) will play for the championship of the tournament at 5 p.m. Saturday. The opponent is yet to be determined.
Dexter led 15-12 after one quarter and slowly opened up some breathing room a bit later on.
"We were able to continue to execute and get some quality scoring chances for ourselves," Dexter coach Mike Bavineau said. "We were able to hit those quality scoring chances because Ferndale turned the ball over a few times and got us more possessions."
Kathryn Pisano finished with 15 points for Dexter, and Crystal Kedroske had 12 points.
New Brunswick 49, Huron 48
Story | Boxscore
Sara Golidy scored 13 points, including three 3-pointers, and Ariel Bethea added 11, but a short-handed Huron (3-3) fell to New Brunswick (Ohio) in the opening day of a tournament at Solon, Ohio.
"We were missing three players, two of which have started for us this year," Huron coach Steve Vinson said. "We (made) a great comeback and had a three point lead going into the fourth, but we could not hold it.
"We were not able to execute down the stretch, and part of that had to do with us missing our two primary ball handlers."
Huron (3-3) will play host Solon in the tournament consolation game Saturday.

Leading 10-7 after the first quarter, Skyline used a 17-9 advantage in the second to take control of the game.
"Troy Athens kept it close in the first quarter," Skyline coach Keith Wade said. "We had two starters out, one with the flu and the other with concussion, so we leaned on Chloe Wiseman to dictate the offense. Gretchen Bakker, another fill-in, didn't miss a beat.
