The MHSAA is providing live scoring of its Regional and Finals events for the girls and boys golf seasons during the 2020-21 school year via the MHSAA Golf app created and operated by the Wanamaker Corporation and iWanamaker.
Girls Golf Regionals began in the Lower Peninsula on Monday, Oct. 5, and will continue through Oct. 10. Lower Peninsula Girls Golf Finals will be played Friday and Saturday, Oct. 16-17, respectively.
Those who wish to follow this year’s MHSAA golf postseasons in real time may download the “MHSAA Golf” app, available for both iOS or Android. The app will provide live scoring, leaderboards and scorecards for all MHSAA postseason events.
“We’re excited to work with iWanamaker on a scoring platform that we believe will add to the excitement of the event for fans and the golfers themselves,” said MHSAA assistant director Cody Inglis, who serves as the Association’s administrator of girls and boys golf. “The opportunity to follow how every competitor is faring on the course, after every hole, has the potential to make this a next-level experience for high school golf.”
Schools across Michigan have used the MHSAA Golf app throughout this fall’s girls golf regular season. The app charges for a “ticket” for events to be followed – $5 each for MHSAA Regionals and Finals. Those who have used the app during the regular season may continue to utilize their $90 family season tickets or $30 single season tickets for MHSAA events as well.
The MHSAA Golf app allows golfers to input their scores after each hole in real-time, with that data then viewable by fans and tournament officials. An added benefit, the use of the digital app by individual golfers also eliminates any need to exchange paper scorecards, further minimizing risk as part of COVID-19 precautions.
Live scores from MHSAA tournament events also are available online, linked from the Girls Golf page of the MHSAA Website. “Tickets” from iWanamaker are still required to watch the live scoring on the website.
Flashback 100: Wagner's Dream of Going on Tour Realized - with Greta Van Fleet
June 10, 2025
As a freshman, Frankenmuth golfer Daniel Wagner qualified individually for the 2014 Lower Peninsula Division 3 Boys Golf Final, finishing in a tie for 35th place. He improved the following year, tying for 26th as a sophomore, and by his junior season Frankenmuth qualified as a team and finished 11th overall with Wagner leading the way.
Heading into his senior season in 2017, Wagner and the Frankenmuth team were in top form, the Eagles as a team having placed second at their Regional and with Wagner finishing second individually as well. Expectations were high for a strong finish at the Final.
But Wagner never made it to the tournament — not due to injury or illness, but for an entirely different stage. He was in Sweden, performing with three friends from Frankenmuth as part of the emerging rock band Greta Van Fleet, during a showcase for music executives. Right after the showcase, the band went on tour across the United States.
That showcase marked the beginning of a meteoric rise. Since then, the band has released three albums — Anthem of the Peaceful Army (2018), The Battle at Garden’s Gate (2021) and Starcatcher (2023) — and earned four Grammy nominations, including a win for Best Rock Album in 2019.
Greta Van Fleet features brothers Joshua, Jake, and Sam Kiszka, along with Wagner, the band's drummer. The band took its name from longtime Frankenmuth resident Gretna Van Fleet.
Years after missing the 2017 Finals, Wagner reached out to the MHSAA about his lost 2016 Finals golf bag tag. A replacement was sent to him and he remains, to date, the only Grammy Award winner known to have one on his or her golf bag ...
