Titles On Line During Dot-TV Streams

October 9, 2018

By John Johnson
MHSAA Director of Broadcast Properties

Some interesting conference race outcomes may take place during a trio of football games this week on MHSAA.tv, produced by participants in the School Broadcast Program.

The first scenario is cut and dry – Monroe is at Saline (Both 6-1 overall, 4-0 league) on Friday (Oct. 12) at 7 p.m. playing for outright possession of the Southeastern Conference Red title. Brighton (6-1, 6-0) can claim the West crown in the Kensington Lakes Activities Association with a win at Howell on Friday at 7 p.m.  A loss and a Canton win at Hartland would force a tie for the division championship.

The third game in the group – Clarkston (6-1, 4-1) at Lake Orion (4-3, 3-2) Friday at 7 p.m. – could force a logjam in the Oakland Activities Association Red.  A Clarkston win gives the Wolves the division outright.  A loss to Lake Orion would tie the Dragons with Clarkston and West Bloomfield (5-2, 4-2) for the title; and if Oxford (5-2, 3-2) beats Bloomfield Hills (1-6, 0-5), there would be a four-way split of the crown.

On Monday (Oct. 15), coverage of District action in the MHSAA Boys Soccer Tournament begins with a number of games hosted by School Broadcast Program participants.
