Football Finals updated
February 16, 2012
Check out our updated Championship Game records with everything from the 2011 Finals, including our first categories for 8-player football.
Among things that stick out from this past season's games:
- The Division 5 Flint Powers Catholic/Lansing Catholic game easily provided the most entries from this season and stacks up among the MHSAA's most offense-heavy Finals ever.
- Orchard Lake St. Mary and Saginaw Nouvel had two of the best running games in Finals history.
- Former Ithaca quarterback Alex Niznak is all over the record book for his accomplishments in the 2010 Division 6 Final. But last season's QB Travis Smith now has nearly as significant a presence after a big-time 2011 performance.
