Bracketology MHSAA style

November 1, 2011

Be sure to check out our tournament brackets for football, soccer and volleyball that we've been updating throughout those MHSAA tournaments.

They're an easy way to keep up with who a team has faced, will play next and when, and also where it might be heading for the next round. 

And anyone can register to give us a hand and update game-by-game results for soccer and volleyball events. Better yet, registering to update scores allows you to do so for any team for an entire season -- which not only will update that team's overall record in the bracket, but give us all a better idea what it has accomplished this fall.

Click here to see every event being played any day, and click "Submit Score" next to an event to update it or "Dispute Score" if we have an incorrect result.

Visit our soccer page to view interactive brackets for every tournament level.
Go to our volleyball page to view the same for this sport.

Coaches Guide to Nutrition: What are Macros?

Planning your meals and snacks shouldn’t be challenging.

Break foods down into three categories: Carbs (energy), Protein (build and repair muscles), and Color (vitamins, minerals).

Adjust your plate based on your level of activity that day. Remember that your body needs carbohydrates like grains, fruits and vegetables for muscle fuel.

On hard training days, up to half of your plate should be carbs. On a recovery or rest day, make a quarter of your plate carbs. 

Plan your meal

Check out these examples for your day’s main meals:

  • Overnight oats with fruit
  • Egg wrap with spinach, cheese and salsa
  • Cereal with fruit and milk topped with nuts
