This week’s show features Conner McCoy of Lincoln Alcona’s boys soccer team,  passes out Game Balls to Ileah Doctor of East Grand Rapids and Bloomfield Hills’ Mikaela Schulz, talks about misunderstood football kicking rules in the "Be The Referee" segment and closes with a commentary on two more great examples of sportsmanship by Pellston’s Alice Principi in cross country and the boys soccer coaching staff at East Grand Rapids.

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."
