Perspective: Sowing Seeds

March 19, 2015

In this week's edition of MHSAA Perspective, John Johnson talks about the seeding of MHSAA Tournaments, how it's happened in some sports, and why it hasn't happened in basketball.

Now in its 10th season, the radio commentary MHSAA Perspective – presented by the Amber Alert Foundation – airs on over 80 radio stations and audio outlets across the state, generally during the local broadcasts of high school games. The program runs for 30 weeks through the end of the winter sports season.

This Week in High School Sports: 12/2/16

December 2, 2016

The latest edition of "This Week In High School Sports" features the defense-heavy Division 4 Football Final, passes out two Game Balls, explains the first steps in becoming an official in Be The Referee and finishes with an MHSAA Perspective talking about teaching class in both victory and defeat. 

The 5-minute program, powered by MI Student Aid, leads off each week with feature stories from around the state from the MHSAA’s Second Half or network affiliates. "Be The Referee," a 60-second look at the fine art of officiating, comes in the middle of the show; and is followed by a closing MHSAA "Perspective."
