This Week in High School Sports: 9/20/19

September 20, 2019

This week’s show features the inspirational story of Larry Prout Jr. at Pinckney High School, presents game balls in 8-player football to Powers North Central and boys soccer to Gaylord, addresses a swimming rules change in "Be The Referee" and concludes with an "MHSAA Perspective" explaining how most decisions in high school sports take place at the local level.

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."
