Girls soccer, baseball and softball games featuring a combined 21 teams from 16 schools were among student broadcasts uploaded last week to MHSAA.tv.
Also, a pair of MHSAA Classics have been brought out of the vault, including a championship story told by one of the most recognizable voices in Michigan sports history.
Longtime Detroit Tigers broadcaster Paul Carey called the 1992 MHSAA Class D Baseball Final, an 8-7 win by Hillman over Athens that was decided in the bottom of the seventh inning. Also added this week was the 1992 Class B Softball Final between Hudsonville Unity Christian and Monroe St. Mary Catholic Central, another nail-biter, won by Unity Christian 7-6.
