Livingston County hockey fans, at least those outside of Brighton, should circle their calendars for 7:30 p.m. Wednesday, Feb. 25, and plan a trip to Flint.

Barring a Miracle on Ice type of upset, that’s when No. 1 Howell and No. 3 Hartland will collide in a matchup worthy of a state championship game that will be played in a regional final at Dort Federal Event Center.

Both team received first-round byes and will face an unranked opponent in the regional semifinals, according to the schedule released Sunday, Feb. 8 by the Michigan High School Athletic Association.

The reward for the winner is a likely state quarterfinal back in Flint on Saturday, Feb. 28 against six-time defending Division 1 champion Detroit Catholic Central. That means only one of the top three teams in the Division 1 rankings will make it to USA Hockey Arena for the semifinals.

Brighton fans will probably take a pass on the Hartland-Howell game because the Bulldogs will likely be playing Northville for a regional championship at 7:45 the same night at Novi Ice Arena.

Here is the schedule for the regionals involving county teams:
