The latest edition of "This Week In High School Sports" features Pewamo-Westphalia running back Jared Smith, passes out two Game Balls, discusses automatic first downs on Be The Referee and finishes with an MHSAA Perspective on behind-the-scenes heroes.
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."
