Performance of the Week: Bay City John Glenn's Asher Clark
October 4, 2024
Asher Clark ♦ Bay City John Glenn
Junior ♦ Soccer
The Bobcats’ junior striker put together a dominating day in helping John Glenn through a historic run at the Swartz Creek Invitational. Clark scored a combined six goals with eight assists as his team defeated Perry 8-0, Swartz Creek 6-0 and Chesaning 3-0 to move to 18-0-2 this season – with the 18th win setting the team’s single-season record.
John Glenn is up to 21-0-2 after its regular-season finale Thursday against North Branch, an 8-0 win during which Clark had six goals and one assist. The Bay City Times reported that Clark has 47 goals this fall, six shy of the single-season school record set in 2008 by Ty Richards. Clark also plays basketball for the Bobcats and is hoping to continue his soccer career at the college level.

Battle of the Fans IV: Vote Now
February 16, 2015
By Geoff Kimmerly
Second Half editor
We watched and enjoyed what hopefuls sent us from all over the state, then criss-crossed Michigan to see this season's best for ourselves.
And now it's your turn to vote for your favorite student cheering section of this season's Battle of the Fans IV.
Vote today through 4 p.m. Thursday on your favorite of these five (enrollments in parentheses) – Beaverton (422), Buchanan (462), Dowagiac (606), St. Johns (1,088) and Yale (716) – by liking, sharing and re-tweeting on the MHSAA’s Facebook, Twitter and Instagram sites
But before you do, take a few minutes to watch all five videos and read the stories behind the sections by clicking the links below.
The contest is sponsored by the MHSAA Student Advisory Council, which will have the final vote on the champion. SAC members will use all resources available to make their decision – including giving significant weight to the public social media vote. Votes will be valued proportionate to the size of the school receiving them (for example, one vote for Class C Beaverton will mean more than one vote for much larger Class A St. Johns).
The champion will be announced Friday on Second Half. Video of all five finalists will be compiled and shown on the main scoreboard during the Girls and Boys Basketball Finals in March at Michigan State's Breslin Student Events Center. The winner will be invited to Breslin on March 27 for the Class B Boys Basketball Semifinals and presented a championship banner at center court.
And now, the finalists, in alphabetical order:
