The five-minute program, powered by Michigan Student Aid, is in its fourth season. The show leads off each week with feature stories from around the state from the MHSAA’s Second Half, or from network affiliated stories and interviews. This Week Game Balls are then presented for team or individual achievements in the past week. Be The Referee, a 60-second look at the fine art of officiating, comes in the middle of the show; and is followed by a closing MHSAA Perspective.
This week show features the Selection Sunday primer. Game balls this week go out Clarkston football quarterback Jake Jenson; and North Muskegon soccer goalie Nick Gerstweiler. Punts and Field Goals are the topic of Be The Referee; and the MHSAA Perspective takes a critical look at Football Playoff expansion.
