Highlights Return to MHSAA.tv

January 14, 2015

By John Johnson
MHSAA communications director

Weekly highlights from games produced by MHSAA members participating in the School Broadcast Program return this week to the MHSAA.tv website.

This week’s highlights package features a showdown game from last week in the Michigan Interscholastic Hockey League between undefeated Detroit Catholic Central (No. 1 in Div. 1 coaches association rankings) and once-beaten Bloomfield Hills Cranbrook Kingswood (No. 1 in Div. 3 coaches association rankings), which ended in a 1-1 tie.

A rivalry boys basketball game with Dowagiac defeating Niles, 58-55, and a North Star League girls basketball game which saw Posen top Hillman, 48-42, are the other SBP produced games from last week in the highlights package, which can be viewed below. 

Last week was a busy back-to-school week for SBP schools, with video from 46 events in eight sports and another 41 games with live basketball stats, all taking place on the MHSAA.tv portal.

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.
