#SocialStudies v5.0

March 1, 2012

It’s officially March – and that means that tournament season is about to seriously go off. 

Drama, buzzer-beaters, trophies, tears and memories that last far beyond this magnificent month will all come into play.  #SocialStudies will be ready and waiting for it all.

Remember to whip out that smartphone and film! You could catch something like this …

1.Did he call 'glass?'

Gary Harris, a senior from Hamilton Southeastern High School (Ind.), is a name that many in our state will know in a year or so – he’s signed to play hoops at Michigan State. While that’s all fine and good, the reason we mention him today is this stunning shot he drained during Indiana’s sectional playoffs. Harris finished the game with 33 points, but his most impressive three came with 4.6 seconds remaining.

The quick version:

This clip really gives you the feel – what a crowd, what a stage, what a shot.


2. Quick work, big win

Hey -- we know him! Student Advisory Council member Kevin Beazley and his Detroit Catholic Central wrestling team took home the Division 1 team title this past weekend – with Beazley grappling for a total of 1 minute and 42 seconds in his three matches. Watch one of his pins here: 20 seconds of work.


3. Bet you haven't seen this before

Sometimes, you find a video of 859 people playing human dominoes… with mattresses.  Who knew this would set a Guinness Record?


Consider those just a few appetizers for the month to come.

Remember, if you see something high school sports-related online that the rest of us must see, or if you videoed something yourself, upload it to Youtube and send it on over.

Variety of Events LIVE on MHSAA.tv

January 7, 2015

One of the great features of the MHSAA School Broadcast Program is that there’s no limit to the different types of activities that can be covered, and some of that diversity will be on display this coming week on the MHSAA.tv website.

Haslett High School’s SBP students will be streaming live coverage of a wrestling dual with Lansing Waverly on Wednesday (Jan. 7) at 6 p.m. and a bowling match with East Lansing on Thursday (Jan. 8) at 3:30 p.m. That’s in addition to a boys basketball game Tuesday (Jan. 6) against Ionia and a girls basketball contest next Tuesday (Jan. 13) with Williamston.

On Saturday (Jan. 10), Montrose will live stream a bowling match with Byron at 2 p.m. Montrose, the SBP Program of the Year in 2013-14, also has a boys basketball varsity stream with Corunna on Tuesday, and a girls-boys hoop deuce with Mount Morris on Friday (Jan. 9).

Mason High School is planning coverage of a girls gymnastics meet on Wednesday with East Lansing at 6:30 p.m., which will be shown On Demand following the event.

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.
