Former King standout Greenwood home again
May 25, 2012
Chris Greenwood has won at Ford Field before -- as part of the Detroit Martin Luther King team that claimed the 2007 Detroit Public School League championship at the NFL Lions' home field.
It's his favorite high school football memory.
And this fall, Greenwood hopes to make that building a permanent home.
Our Brian Spencer -- one of Greenwood's Albion College teammates the last three seasons -- chatted with the Lions hopeful this week about from his took away from high school football, and what he's experiencing now as he works to jump to the game's highest level after a lesser-traveled path through Division III football.

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.
