In this week's edition of MHSAA Perspective, John Johnson talks about what matters most, recognizing local athletes and their accomplishments, when it comes to media coverage of high school sports. 

Now in its 10th season, the radio commentary MHSAA Perspective – presented by the Michigan Army National Guard – 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: 9/15/17

September 15, 2017

This week’s show features an act of great sportsmanship by St. Johns' Taryn Chapko toward Jillian Lange of Goodrich in a recent nighttime girls cross country meet, passes out Game Balls to Brighton’s Celia Cullen, and Trevor Johns and Bryson Jensen from Manistee; discusses why it’s a good idea for retired referees to stay registered in the "Be The Referee" segment and closes with a commentary on sportsmanship.

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."
