Perspective: Three Jobs
January 12, 2015
In this week's edition of MHSAA Perspective, John Johnson talks about a recent Sports Illustrated column where the writer – a hockey parent – reminds everyone that there are three jobs to be performed during a game, and that each party should focus on their own job.
Now in its 10th season, the radio commentary MHSAA Perspective – presented by the Michigan Army National Guard – airs on over 80 radio stations and audio outlets across the state, generally during the local broadcasts of high school games. The program runs for 30 weeks through the end of the winter sports season.
