This Week in High School Sports: 9/25/18

September 25, 2018

This week's show features Kiera Lasky, a multi-sport athlete on Bronson’s three-time reigning Class C champion girls volleyball team, passes out game balls to Lansing Waverly soccer goalie Shad Cunningham and the girls golf team at St. Joseph High School, discusses a unique football kickoff rule in "Be The Referee" and finishes with an MHSAA "Perspective" about the real blue chip participants in high school sports.

The 5-minute program, powered by MI Student Aid, leads off each week with feature stories from around the state from the MHSAA’s Second Half or network affiliates. "Be The Referee," a 60-second look at the fine art of officiating, comes in the middle of the show and is followed by a closing MHSAA "Perspective."
