Renaissance High School Girls Basketball Update 12/31/2025

The Renaissance High School girls varsity basketball team finished their December slate with a statement win, routing Grosse Pointe South 86–35. The victory brings the Phoenix to a 4–2 record, cementing their status as a top-15 contender in Michigan’s Division 1 rankings.

Throughout the first month of the season, the Phoenix have showcased an aggressive defensive identity. Their early-season highlights include a nail-biting one-point win over Heritage and a masterclass defensive performance against King High School. While the team faced setbacks against elite opponents like Belleville and Wayne Memorial, the experience gained in these high-stakes matchups appears to be paying dividends.

As the calendar turns to 2026, the focus shifts to the Detroit Public School League title. A highly anticipated rivalry showdown with Mumford looms on January 12th, a game that local analysts expect will determine the frontrunner for the West Division crown.
