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.
Be The Referee: Missed Field Goals
November 5, 2020
This week, MHSAA officials coordinator Sam Davis presents a "You Make the Call" to test your knowledge on change of possession after a missed field goal.
Be The Referee is a series of short messages designed to help educate people on the rules of different sports, to help them better understand the art of officiating, and to recruit officials.
Below is this week's segment - You Make the Call: Missed Field Goals - Listen
Let's get everyone in football game shape with the following “You Make the Call.” One team has a chance to kick a 50-yard field goal just before halftime. As the kicker approaches the ball being held at the 40-yard line, his plant leg slips and the kick comes up well short and wide as it rolls out of bounds at the 4-yard line.
Under high school rules, where will the team that forced the bad kick next snap the ball?
Believe it or not, under high school rules missed field goals that roll out of bounds before reaching the goal line are treated just like a punt. The new offense will put the ball in play 1st-and-10 from the 4-yard line.
