Our Scoreboard = Your Scoreboard
December 6, 2011
We've undertaken a pretty major endeavor at the MHSAA this winter.
At this moment on Dec. 6, we have roughly 70 percent of all boys and girls basketball games scheduled by our teams for this winter entered into our system -- with the goal of keeping an up-to-date record of every schedule, every score and every league's standings.
That 70 percent might sound like barely passing -- until one considers that's more than 10,000 of a possible 15,000 games that will be played by MHSAA schools this winter.
It's a massive effort. Our athletic administrators, secretaries and coaches have helped a ton. But we'd greatly appreciate your help as well.
Like with football in the fall, anyone can report a score, tell us if we have one incorrect, or add an entire schedule at any time. Just go through a quick registration on our site, and become part of what we hope will be an impressive and useful library of information..
Click here to check out tonight's statewide schedule, or search for any night's games for the entire season. Click on a school name or search under "Schools" to see what we have for that team's full schedule. (Postseason games will be added later.)
And click here for the quick registration (it takes 15 seconds or fewer) if you'd like to give us a hand.
New Member to join MHSAA Rep Council
October 15, 2012
Elections were completed recently to fill positions on the Michigan High School Athletic Association’s legislative body, its Representative Council, and one new member was among those selected.
Reese athletic director Dave Derocher will join the council to represent Class C and D schools in the northern section of the Lower Peninsula. He was elected to a two-year team, as were seven others who were re-elected and will begin terms during the council’s fall meeting.
Saginaw Heritage athletic director and assistant principal Peter Ryan will continue to represent Class A and B schools in the Lower Peninsula’s northern section, Buchanan athletic director Fredrick Smith will continue to represent Class A and B in the southwestern section, and Brighton athletic director John Thompson will continue to represent Class A and B in the southeastern section. Negaunee superintendent James Derocher will continue to represent Class C and D schools in the Upper Peninsula.
Grand Haven assistant superintendent Scott C. Grimes was re-elected to a statewide at-large position, and Clare Middle School principal Steve Newkirk was re-elected to represent junior high and middle schools. Vic Michaels, director of physical education and athletics for the Archdiocese of Detroit, will continue to represent private and parochial schools.
The Representative Council is the 19-member legislative body of the MHSAA. All but five members are elected by member schools. Four members are appointed by the Council to facilitate representation of females and minorities, and the 19th position is occupied by the Superintendent of Public Instruction or designee. The Council meets three times annually, and five members of the Council convene monthly during the school year to form the MHSAA’s Executive Committee, which reviews appeals of Handbook regulations by member schools.
Additional elections took place to select representatives to the Upper Peninsula Athletic Committee. St. Ignace superintendent Donald Gustafson was chosen to represent Class D schools. Michael Berutti, who serves as principal, athletic director and football coach at Iron River West Iron County High School, was elected to represent athletic coaches.
