Michigan Lutheran scored an overall rating of 4.38 on a five-point scale.  Lutheran also had top ratings in the fans’ category, while Watervliet Grace Christian’s players were rated most sporting.

Michigan Lutheran has won the award nine of the 12 years it has been given.  For Coach Lillo this is his eighth award.
