This week's edition leads off with Jenison golf's remembrance of teammate Sydney Carfine, hands out Game Balls to Hartland's girls and boys cross country teams and the Cadillac volleyball team, explores football rules changes enhancing safety in "Be the Referee" and explains the ridiculousness of equating new football practice contact restrictions with Michigan athletes "falling behind" in the sport.
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."
