Each Monday for the first four weeks of the Playoffs, a FOX Sports Detroit Twitter poll will be conducted for 24 hours to select one game to be available on Facebook. This week’s poll was won by Livonia Franklin at Walled Lake Western, which garnered more than 50 percent of the vote.

The four live games each week will be free on the FOX Sports Detroit Website and will also be available to mobile users of FOX Sports GO!  Authentication may be required to watch on FS GO!

A portion of every subscription sold by a school goes to benefit its program.
