The Sports Drive: Dion Brown Talks Gwinn Football + Geoff Kimmerly of MHSAA Explains Referee Shortage

Marquette, MIOctober 1, 2018 – The injury bug is almost guaranteed to bite at least one football team every year. So far, that team has been the Gwinn Modeltowners. Gwinn lost more than one key player in their loss to Houghton, and now the Modeltowners have lost 2 straight games after a 4-0 start. Head Coach of the Modeltowners, Dion Brown, joined the Sports Drive today to talk about getting guys healthy and playing with a chip on their shoulder as they chase a playoff bid.

Michigan High School Sports currently has a big big problem, that is on the verge of being catastrophic. There is a shortage in game officials, and it isn’t getting better. Luke and Mark had Geoff Kimmerly of the MHSAA join the Sports Drive to let us know the reasoning behind the shortage, why we need officials, and how to become an official. You can become an official today by signing up here.

Plus: Week 6 high school football recap, Brewers defeated the Cubs for the NL Central Title, College and NFL recaps.

Tune into the Sports Drive weekdays from 3-5pm on Fox Sports Marquette 105.1 – 99.9 and online at foxsportsmarquette.com
