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 />

The girls’ high school basketball rankings won’t be out until the new year. But it’s<br />

a good bet that Sandusky will begin this year where it left <strong>of</strong>f in last year’s poll. A big<br />

part <strong>of</strong> both teams is junior guard/forward Gabby Gough – <strong>Varsity</strong> <strong>Monthly</strong>’s <strong>December</strong><br />

Player <strong>of</strong> the Month. It’s easy for a player to get lost in the shuffle since Sandusky always<br />

features multiple star players, and the last two years have been no exception. But<br />

Gough, at 5-foot-11, has stood tall. The junior has helped the Redskins<br />

to a 5-0 start as <strong>of</strong> Dec. 13, and has scored 21 points in a pair<br />

<strong>of</strong> games – a 61-17 win over Deckerville and a 51-27 win over Cass<br />

City.<br />

Last year Gough was named honorable mention on the <strong>Thumb</strong><br />

Sportswriters Association All-<strong>Thumb</strong> team for Sandusky. The Redskins<br />

went 20-0 in the regular season last year, finishing the season<br />

as the No. 1 team in the final Class C poll. And this year, the Redskins<br />

which also features returning first-team all-TSA pick Haley<br />

Nelson and second-team selection Madysen Jansen, and are lead by<br />

hall <strong>of</strong> fame coach Al DeMott, are on the same track.<br />

Despite her height, Gough is just as likely to hit a three pointer<br />

as she is to score <strong>of</strong>f an <strong>of</strong>fensive rebound. That kind <strong>of</strong> versatility<br />

is common in DeMott-coached players. DeMott, incidentally recently earned his<br />

Gabby Gough<br />

700th win as Sandusky coach. Gough is a three-sport athlete for the Redskins, also playing<br />

volleyball in the fall. She has played s<strong>of</strong>tball the past two years but says she plans<br />

on running track this spring. She enjoys rollerblading, hanging out with friends and<br />

watching Netflix.<br />

Reese junior Gabe Robinson racked up football postseason honors because <strong>of</strong> how far<br />

he can kick a football. Turns out he’s pretty good with his hands too.<br />

Robinson, a 6-foot-3 sharpshooter, caught fire in the Rockets boys’ basketball season<br />

opener against Millington on Dec. 6, exploding for 20 points in a 58-51 Reese come-from-behind<br />

win. The astonishing part <strong>of</strong> his performance is that Robinson was held scoreless in the<br />

first half. Robinson was one <strong>of</strong> Reese’s top players as a sophomore,<br />

and looks like he’s ready to pick it up a notch this year.<br />

During football season, Robinson was in all-conference<br />

defensive back for the Rockets, but was recognized on a broader<br />

scale for his ability to boot the ball. The <strong>Thumb</strong> Sportswriters<br />

Association named Robinson to its first team as both a punter<br />

and a kicker. And he also was named to the Division 7/8 All State<br />

Team as a punter. He plays baseball for Reese as well.<br />

Robinson’s sister, Sophee, is a starting guard on the Reese<br />

girls’ basketball team and he includes singing duets with his sister<br />

while driving as one <strong>of</strong> his hobbies. He also likes to golf, although<br />

he admits his game needs a little improving.<br />
