This Week in High School Sports: 11/27/18

November 27, 2018

This week's show features top defensive performances from the 11-Player Football Finals, delivers game balls to New Lothrop quarterback Avery Moore and Warren DeLaSalle linebackers Jacob Dobbs and Devin Campbell, discusses video replay impossibilities in "Be The Referee" and closes telling of a pair of notable experiences from the weekend trip to Ford Field.

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."
