Key Gridiron Games Set to Stream

September 28, 2016

By John Johnson
MHSAA Communications Director

There are a number of football games this Friday with live streaming video on MHSAA.tv being produced by members of the School Broadcast Program.

Starting to the North – Calumet (4-0 league, 4-1 overall) hosts Iron River West Iron County (2-1, 3-2) in a West PAC game as the Copper Kings seek to stay on top. In the Saginaw Valley League, Davison (3-0, 4-1) hosts Midland (3-0, 3-2) in a game that will break up some of the three-top logjam with Lapeer. In the Genesee Athletic Conference Red, Montrose (3-1, 3-2) welcomes Corunna (3-0, 5-0) as it seeks to stay relevant in that division. To the west in the O-K Conference Red, Rockford (2-0, 3-2) hosts Grandville (3-0, 5-0) with the top spot on the line. All of these games start at 7 p.m.

In its eighth year, the School Broadcast Program gives members an opportunity to showcase excellence in their schools by creating video programming of athletic and non-athletic events with students gaining skills in announcing, camera operation, directing/producing and graphics.

The program also gives schools the opportunity to raise money through advertising and viewing subscriptions.  

All sporting events – live or delayed - are available on a subscription basis only for their first 72 hours online.  They become available for free, on-demand viewing approximately 72 hours following their completion.

Here’s this week’s MHSAA.tv schedule of video streams available being produced by SBP members, as well as live stats from MHSAA member schools using Digital Scout:
