This Week in High School Sports: 2/9/18
February 9, 2018
This week’s show features 2018 Women In Sports Leadership Award winner Meg Seng, passes out Game Balls to a handful of basketball players who reached milestone scoring marks last week, talks about the national rules making process in "Be the Referee" and closes with a commentary about the member-driven nature of MHSAA rules.
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."
