Photo Finishes: April 16, 2012
April 16, 2012
Take a photo last week that you really liked? Or get some exciting video that everyone should see? We want to see both as well.
The spring season finally is full blast, and we're celebrating our return to the outdoors with a new feature at Second Half.
Each Monday, we'll post reader-submitted photos and videos -- at first, up to five each week, with the opportunity to include more if there's interest/submissions to match.
If sending a photo, just let us know when and where it was taken (and who is in it if possible). Videos must be uploaded to YouTube and will be embedded on Second Half.
Send your photos and links to YouTube videos to Geoff Kimmerly at [email protected].

Battle of the Fans: Vote Now
February 20, 2012
The time has come to decide the winner of the inaugural MHSAA Battle of the Fans contest.
And we've put the decision, in part, in your hands.
Vote today through Thursday on your favorite of five finalists -- Petoskey, Rockford, Reese, Grand Rapids Christian and Frankenmuth -- by clicking the poll link on the right side of this screen.
But before you do, be sure to brush up on each by clicking on the stories behind all five sections and watching our MHSAA-produced videos of those student cheerers in action, shot over the last five weeks during the MHSAA tour of finalists' schools.
The contest is sponsored by the MHSAA Student Advisory Council, and the winner will be decided by a combination of SAC and public vote. You must be a member of Facebook and "like" the MHSAA page to take part.
The champion will be announced Friday on Second Half. Video of all five finalists will be compiled and shown on the main scoreboard during the Girls and Boys Basketball Finals in March at Michigan State's Breslin Student Events Center.
And now, the finalists, in alphabetical order:
