Road Trip

December 2, 2011

We love maps, probably because we spend a lot of time with them during our travels across our great state.

To continue on with the transition theme from fall to winter, here’s a look at the road trip our Home Team Marketing representatives took this week.

If you attended a football, boys soccer or volleyball Regional, Semifinal or Final, mostly below the 45th parallel, you no doubt saw our banners or signs.

With those seasons over, and someone’s got to pick them up. So HTM took a U-Haul truck coast to coast to grab all of our gear to be re-deployed for the next round of tournaments.

What's My Why: Official Will Godfrey

June 24, 2026

Will Godfrey, Jackson

Godfrey just completed his 30th year as an MHSAA-registered official, and he has officiated basketball and softball every season of those three decades. He also has officiated 24 seasons of volleyball, 24 of football and 18 of baseball.

Basically, to stay involved in sports, supplement my income, and just to really stay active.

I would encourage anyone who wants to stay involved in sports to do it. It’s fun and very rewarding. You meet a lot of good people, and it’s a good time.

“What’s My Why” is a weekly feature telling the stories of MHSAA-registered officials in their own words. If you’re an MHSAA official and would like to share your reason why, please submit a 15 to 45-second video, taken horizontally, to director of officials Sam Davis at [email protected].
