EAST LANSING, Mich. – Oct. 29 – It will be a very busy week of live video and audio streaming of MHSAA Tournament activity on the MHSAA.tv, MHSAANetwork.com and FOXSportsDetroit.com websites.

The centerpiece of the next seven days comes on Saturday (Nov.  2), when the Boys Soccer Finals will have live audio and video streaming of its championship games from Novi and Comstock Park High Schools.  Two games will be played at each site with the game times set for Noon and 3 p.m.  The finalists will be determined following Semifinal play on Wednesday (Oct. 30), with four of those games being streamed live on MHSAA.tv.

Saturday’s coverage will also include the Lower Peninsula Cross Country Finals at Michigan International Speedway in Brooklyn.   The Finish Line Cam will capture the opening 800 meters of the race on the infield of the track, and the conclusion of the race beginning between the third and fourth turns on the oval.  The Finish Line Cam will also feature commentary throughout each race from reporters on the course.  Weather permitting, coverage may also include the awards presentations and a camera showing the runners just past the two-mile mark of the race before reentering the oval at MIS.

Lots of Football Playoff games will take place beginning Friday evening with three featured games on the FOX Sports Detroit Prep Zone.  The Prep Zone games can be seen on FoxSportsDetroit.com and on FOX Sports Go! For handheld and streaming devices like Roku.  Here are this weekend games, all at 7 p.m. on Friday:

  • White Lake Lakeland at Plymouth (Div. 2)
  • Rochester Adams at Utica Eisenhower (Div. 2)
  • DeWitt at East Lansing (Div. 3)

MHSAA.tv will play host to 30 Pre-District Football Playoff games over the weekend, most produced by participants in the School Broadcast Program.  The NFHS Network is providing bonus coverage of two additional games on Friday – Brighton at Holt in Division 1 and Pinckney at Coldwater in Division 3.

On Monday (Nov. 4) a record number of District matches in the MHSAA Volleyball Tournament will have opening night streaming video.  Over the course of the first week of the tournament, action will be streamed from 25 tournament centers.

The unprecedented coverage in Football, Soccer and Volleyball this fall is due to addition of Pixellot, the NFHS Network’s automated production solution at a growing number of MHSAA member schools.  The number of active Pixellot schools now stands at 84, with nearly 30 additional schools awaiting installation at their stadium, their gymnasium – or both venues.  As a result, the number of events produced by School Broadcast Program participants has passed the 2,000 mark already this school year.

Now in its 11th year, the School Broadcast Program gives members an opportunity to showcase excellence in their schools by creating video programming of athletic and non-athletic events; with students gaining skills in announcing, camera operation, directing/producing and graphics.  Pixellot – The NFHS Network’s automated streaming solution - is used by schools wishing to live stream games, but lack the ability to staff the events.  The program also gives schools the opportunity to raise money through advertising and viewing subscriptions.

NFHS Network subscriptions begin at $10.99 a month.  Subscribers will have access to all live video and streaming statistics across the country.  All content becomes available for free, on-demand viewing 72 hours after being shown live.  School Broadcast Program participants benefit as a portion of every subscription sold by a school goes to benefit its program. 

A complete list of participating schools can be found on the 
School Broadcast Program page of the MHSAA Website. 

Over 100 over-the-air radio stations and internet audio website are carrying the MHSAA Network’s flagship program, This Week In High School Sports, as part of their weekly high school sports programming for the third straight year. 

The five-minute program, powered by Michigan Student Aid, is in its fifth year.  It 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’s show will feature the football team at Muskegon Orchard View; present game balls in football and volleyball to Beavertone; discuss the most important line on the field in football during Be The Referee; and conclude with a preview of this weekend’s tournament being streaming live online. 

A complete list of radio stations and web audio outlets carrying This Week In High School Sports  can be found by Clicking Here. 

This Week In High School Sports is posted to the home page of the MHSAA Website by Noon on Tuesday each week; and is also available on the MHSAA Network Website.  You can listen to this week’s show by Clicking Here 

Be The Referee is also available each week as a separate podcast.  These 60-second messages, featuring MHSAA Assistant Director Brent Rice and veteran MHSAA official Sam Davis, take a look at rules in different sports, challenges your rules knowledge with some You Make The Call questions, and pass on other information about the world of officiating.  

Be The Referee is posted online by Noon Tuesday each week, and can be found on the home pages of the MHSAA Website and the MHSAA Network Website.  You can listen to this week’s message by Clicking Here
