We hope the first three years of Second Half have made it a must-read for MHSAA Finals coverage, as well as a great place to start your day during the weeks leading up to our championship competitions. Starting Tuesday, you'll find more reason to tune in daily.

Finishing lower than first is a rarity for this week's High 5 recipients, who have found themselves ahead of the pack nearly all of the time during this fall's volleyball, cross country and football seasons.

Two of this week's honorees finished their MHSAA careers over the weekend with Finals championships. The third hopes to accomplish the same on the first Saturday in November.

The postseason got underway in girls golf and boys tennis, with those finishes among the non-football highlights from the week of Oct. 8-14.

Two of this week's honorees have combined for five MHSAA championship, and a third has a chance to be part of his first next month.

The first MHSAA championships of the 2012-13 school year highlight the best of non-football events from the last week.

We're kicking off the 2011-12 school year with a newly-crowned MHSAA soccer goals leader, arguably the top female cross country runner in the state, and a boys tennis team that's risen from two wins two seasons ago to two wins over top-10 teams this past Saturday.

With most MHSAA schools on spring break either last week or currently, High 5s will take a break as well. Look for the next round April 17.

We love maps, probably because we spend a lot of time with them during our travels across our great state. To continue on with the transition theme from fall to winter, here’s a look at the road trip our Home Team Marketing representatives took this week.
