Mission Statement<br />

<strong>Varsity</strong> <strong>Monthly</strong> <strong>Thumb</strong> Area (“VMTA”) is dedicated to the recognition and advancement <strong>of</strong> high<br />

school athletics in Michigan’s <strong>Thumb</strong> region. VMTA, created in 2014, is a monthly sports magazine,<br />

which displays achievements <strong>of</strong> local high school athletes, primarily through high quality photography.<br />

At the heart <strong>of</strong> the <strong>Varsity</strong> <strong>Monthly</strong> mission is the support <strong>of</strong> local students, and our high school athletic<br />

departments, in an effort to preserve physical health, competition through sport, and the development <strong>of</strong><br />

strong, well-rounded future leaders. Our various pr<strong>of</strong>essional photographers attend games and/or events<br />

in each <strong>of</strong> the 17 communities that we cover, each month. We then display these photographs <strong>of</strong> as many<br />

athletes as possible, through our monthly publication, website and facebook page. VTMA highlights a<br />

male and female standout athlete each month on our “Players <strong>of</strong> the Month” page. We are joined in this<br />

awesome mission by a wealth <strong>of</strong> local businesses who support our youth by advertising in our publication,<br />

on the page/s <strong>of</strong> their selected locality. The magazine would not be possible without these great<br />

supporters and ask that you keep our advertising customers in mind for your local business needs. We<br />

display the advertisements in the magazine, on our website and on our facebook page to provide them<br />

with maximum exposure. We also award a customer each month with our “Advertiser <strong>of</strong> the Month,”<br />

providing local business owners with an opportunity to reflect on the impact <strong>of</strong> high school athletics in<br />

their lives and businesses, and the reason they support youth athletics in the <strong>Thumb</strong>. Thanks for visiting<br />

varsitymonthlythumb.com and for your continued support <strong>of</strong> high school athletics. Go <strong>Thumb</strong> Teams!<br />

Players Of The Month<br />

<strong>Varsity</strong> <strong>Monthly</strong> <strong>Thumb</strong> is proud to announce our new sponsor for the Players<br />

<strong>of</strong> the Month, VG’s Grocery <strong>of</strong> Caro. Now, not only will the players <strong>of</strong><br />

the month be featured in the magazine and recieve a stunning Player <strong>of</strong> the<br />

Month T-Shirt, VG’s will also provide each athlete with a $25 gift Card!!<br />

For the past four years, Kyle Stockmeyer has been a fixture on the<br />

court for the Reese basketball team. And the senior left his mark<br />

as one <strong>of</strong> the best players in Rockets’ history. Stockmeyer hit the<br />

ground running by averaging in double figures as a freshman, and<br />

didn’t let up. This year he became the third Reese boys’ basketball<br />

to score 1,000 points in his career.<br />

The 6-foot-3 forward, who can drive to basket or drain a threepointer,<br />

averaged 14 points and hauled down nearly 10 rebounds<br />

per game. He is a member <strong>of</strong> the All-<strong>Thumb</strong> team and also earned<br />

honorable-mention all-state from the Detroit Free Press and Associated<br />

Press.<br />

“The reason for my successful year is the people I’ve been surrounded<br />

by,” Stockmeyer said. “My teammates and my coaches have<br />

always given me confidence and set me up for success for whatever<br />

I do.” Stockmeyer was the 2017 <strong>Thumb</strong> Player <strong>of</strong> the Year, and also<br />

plays basketball and runs track. He will continue his basketball career at St Clair<br />

Community College.<br />

Since she began high school, Cass City’s Sayge Cuthrell has had a knack for standing out on<br />

the court. And her talent is impossible to ignore now that she’s a senior. Cuthrell could fill a<br />

trophy case from awards earned during her athletic career – and that’s just from the past six<br />

months. As an outside hitter for the Red Hawks volleyball team,<br />

Cuthrell earned third-team all-state and first-team all-<strong>Thumb</strong><br />

honors in 2017, while playing for coach Amy Cuthrell – Sayge’s mother.<br />

And the 5-foot-10 forward kept her motor running during basketball<br />

season, averaging 18.7 points and 11.1 rebounds per game, while<br />

scoring the 1,000th point <strong>of</strong> her career. Her performance didn’t go<br />

unnoticed as Cuthrell earned honorable-mention all-state and firstteam<br />

all-<strong>Thumb</strong> honors.<br />

“I worked hard in the <strong>of</strong>fseason with jump training and lifting that<br />

allowed me to be stronger and a better player in season,” Cuthrell<br />

said. “I just gave it my all and did what was asked <strong>of</strong> me from my coach.”<br />

Cuthrell is also a star s<strong>of</strong>tball player for Cass City, but is presently<br />

sayge cuthrell out indefinitely due to an injury she suffered during basketball season.<br />

She plans on attending Ferris State University to study nursing.<br />

USA Boys basketball team capped <strong>of</strong> an amazing<br />

season battling eventual State Champion<br />

Detroit Edison. The Patroits fought through and<br />

defeated some very notible competition to make<br />

it to the state quarter final game. Beating powerhouse<br />

Saginaw Nouvel and 2 days later they<br />

backed that up with a huge win against defending<br />

State Champion Flint Beecher. With amazing fan<br />

support, the Patriots effort did not dissapoint.<br />

Congratulations to coach Gainforth and team!!<br />
