Justin Glod’s first goal during last season’s Division 1 Final didn’t come until the first few minutes of the second half. But his second and third goals that afternoon have joined the most memorable in a long line of historic scores for the Bloomfiel...

For several weeks, Americans have been awaiting answers to several questions. When will restaurants restart dine-in services? When will hair salons and gyms be open? When will people be able to congregate for worship services? And, of course, when will education-based s...

Eric Solberg tied the MHSAA Final record with six goals to set up East Grand Rapids to repeat as Division 2 champion in 2018. And Chris Owens’ bouncer into the net with 2:04 left in second overtime finished the perhaps unexpected 11-10 Pioneers’ win over Gr...
