Broadcasts Back on MHSAA.TV, FSD

August 28, 2013

The new school year begins on the MHSAA Network this week with school-created content on MHSAA.tv, the season launch of MHSAA Football Friday Overtime on FOX Sports Detroit, and a new season of MHSAA Perspective on a statewide radio network.

MHSAA.tv: The School Broadcast Program gives member schools an opportunity to create video programming, with students gaining skills in announcing, camera operation, and graphics using software provided by PlayOn! Sports. The program also gives schools the opportunity to raise money through advertising and viewing subscriptions. As many as 60 MHSAA member schools annually participate in the program, which is in its fifth year.

Here’s the schedule of School Broadcast Program members planning to cover Week One football games, some of which will be available at MHSAA.tv shortly after each game’s conclusion (as of Aug. 27):

Schools interested in becoming a part of the School Broadcast Program should contact John Johnson at the MHSAA Office.

Friday Football Overtime: Beginning this Friday and running for 13 weeks at Midnight is MHSAA Football Friday Overtime on FOX Sports Detroit. Mickey York and Rob Rubick return to host the weekly 30-minute highlights show.

The following games are scheduled to be highlighted this week on Football Friday Overtime:

  • Grand Rapids Christian at Grand Rapids South Christian
  • Dearborn vs. Clinton Township Chippewa Valley
  • Dearborn Fordson vs. Macomb Dakota
  • St. Charles at Flint Hamady
  • Flint Northwestern at Flint Beecher
  • Orchard Lake St. Mary vs. Oak Park

Live Stats, Games on MHSAA.tv

December 9, 2014

Another feature offered on the MHSAA.tv website is the availability of live basketball stats at member schools using the Digital Scout platform for their in-game statistics keeping.

Digital Scout is a division of PlayOn! Sports, which powers the NFHS Network.  Schools input statistics live using a handheld device. When connected to the Internet, those stats stream live on a school’s portal page and on the MHSAA portal page. For those games which have live streaming video and live stats, they are incorporated onto a single page to enhance the viewer’s experience.

Last week, live stats were available for over a dozen girls basketball games, along with a similar number of basketball and ice hockey games with live streaming video from MHSAA members participating in the School Broadcast Program; those numbers will only grow now that the boys basketball season has begun.

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. The program also gives schools the opportunity to raise money through advertising and viewing subscriptions.
