Performance of the Week: Southfield Arts & Technology's Isaiah Marshall
December 1, 2023
Isaiah Marshall ♦ Southfield Arts & Technology
Senior ♦ Football
The 6-foot, 205-pound quarterback provided one of the most dynamic and historic performances in MHSAA Football Finals history to close the season Sunday evening. He completed 20 of 31 passes for 281 yards and two touchdowns and ran 22 times for 134 yards and the game-winning score with 47 seconds to play to lead the Warriors to a 36-32 Division 1 win over Belleville, clinching their first Finals championship in this sport and ending the Tigers’ 38-game winning streak.
Marshall finished this season throwing for 3,114 yards and 39 TDs and rushing for 1,507 yards and 16 scores as A&T ended 13-1 – avenging its lone loss by defeating West Bloomfield in its Semifinal. His 415 total yards in the Final rank fourth all-time for 11-player football, while his passing yardage ranks 19th and his completion total is tied for 12th on that list. He’s committed to sign with Kansas.

Performance of the Week: Whitmore Lake's Kaylie Livingston
November 8, 2024
Kaylie Livingston ♦ Whitmore Lake
Sophomore ♦ Cross Country
After finishing runner-up as a freshman, Livingston took the championship step to win her first MHSAA Final in this sport, claiming the Lower Peninsula Division 4 title Saturday at Michigan International Speedway in 18 minutes, 6.5 seconds. Livingston built an 8.6-second lead during the first mile and won the race by nearly 14 seconds, and in the process also led Whitmore Lake to a repeat team championship.
Livingston won 13 races total this fall, finishing second once and sixth among a field that included two more eventual Finals champions in the Shepherd BLUEJAY Invitational Elite race. She also plays basketball for Whitmore Lake, making the all-Michigan Interscholastic Athletic Conference first team as a freshman, and she's just a few months removed from winning the 3,200 meters, finishing second in the 1,600 and running on the winning 3,200 relay at the spring's LPD4 Track & Field Finals.
