BOYNE CITY, Mich. – Still perfect.


Grayling continued its win streak and shutout streak Tuesday with a 3-0 shutout of host Boyce City Tuesday in Northern Shores Conference play.


The Vikings have opened the season with nine wins – all clean sheets – and are now 9-0-0 on the season and 7-0-0 inside the newly-created Northern Shores Conference, where there are eight schools competing in sports in the conference and all eight have boys soccer programs.


Gibsen Barnett, Connor Ketchum and BelaVon Lampe scored the goals for Grayling (9-0-0, 7-0-0). Brett Peterson, Alex Moore and Jackson Marshall picked up assists and Jordan Peters recorded seven more saves to keep his save percentage at 1.000 and the team goals-against-average at 0.00.


Peters has recorded nine shutouts for the Vikings, who have outscored the opposition 41-0 and 33-0 in conference games this season.


GRAND RAPIDS WEST CATHOLIC 3, MIDDLEVILLE THORNAPPLE-KELLOGG 2: Danny Disosola scored the game-winning goal and Grand Rapids West Catholic moved into sole possession of second place in the Ottawa Kent conference-Gold Division with a 3-2 road victory Monday over Middleville Thornapple-Kellogg. Disosola corralled a feed for Landon Smith with just over 13 minutes remaining in the contest and buried his shot into the back of the net. Mason Marcotte and Discola staked the Falcons (6-5-0, 4-3-0) to an early 2-0 lead which they held through the half. Simeon Biltawi and Juan Aguiar scored early in the second half to knot the game at 2-2 Thornapple-Kellogg (8-5-0, 3-4-0). That set the stage for some late-game heroics for West Catholic.


GROSSE POINTE NORTH 9, WARREN MOTT 1: North hosted its annual Cancer Awareness Game in honor of Former coach Guido Regelbrugge, who passed away in 2006. Regelbrugge founded a club team in the 1970s the Grosse Pointe Cougars and helped establish Grosse Pointe North’s first varsity boys soccer program in 1980. Matthew Robert scored a natural hattrick to put the Northmen up 3-0 in the first 29 minutes of play. Joshua Triplett added two goals, while Brisou Rainbolt, Vincenzo Bonasso, Jack O’Dell and Jean-Paul Shemmai also scored for North (4-5-2) in this Macomb Area Conference-Blue Division game. GPN alumni raised over $1,300 for the International Myeloma Foundation before the game.


GRAND BLANC 9, BAY CITY CENTRAL 0: The Bobcats maintained first place in the Saginaw Valley League with this lopsided win over Bay city Central on Monday. Lincoln Floyd had a pair of goals for Grand Blanc, who led 9-0 at the half. It marked the sixth straight shutout for the Bobcats, who have now outscored the opposition 43-5.


KINGSFORD 8, IRON MOUNTAIN-NORWAY UNIFIED 0: Jaxton Buckley had another offensive explosion and Kingsford cruised to the shutout win over its arch-rivals. Buckley had the hattrick with three assists. Sophomore brother Jett Buckley added two goals, Will Murvich also scored and Ben Fornetti picked up an assist for Kingsford (10-0-0), which now has eight shutouts on the year and has outscored the opposition 58-2.

Michigan-based Premier Media Group is expanding ... don't miss out on coverage


SHELBY TWP., Mich. – The Premier Media Group is expanding its broadcast net.


And we want you.


The Michigan-based PMG, founded in 2022, its flagship production the Michigan Soccer Network and all other affiliates, is actively scheduling games in a wide variety of high school leagues and conferences, small colleges, amateur, pre-professional, youth club, and other avenues of the beautiful game in Michigan.


The schedule for the fall semester is starting to fill up across Michigan.

The daily connections are being made and the spreading of our brand has brought in great reviews.


Would the coaches, administration, student-athletes, players and fans like for us to broadcast a game near you?


Regardless of the now-popular remote broadcast games, on-location broadcast games, on-location shows or in-studio daily shows, there is a simple process. Visit the website www.michigansoccernetwork.com or click below for details.



PMG will also be holding various “Win A Free Broadcast” contest at various parts of the fall, winter (indoor) and spring seasons.




"(Michigan Soccer Network) has does a great job making these kids feel special,” offered Michal Hatfield, girls soccer coach at Trenton High School who also coaches in the Detroit City FC youth club system. “The broadcasts were professionally done and we were very pleased when they did our games. They did a great job with (play-by-play), graphics and postgame interviews with the kids. And a lot of people saw it. We had uncles and aunts that have never seen their nieces play get a chance to watch them on YouTube). And all of the kids were able to jump on there (the YouTube channel) afterwards and watch the game.”


The MSN staff had the pleasure of broadcasting multiple games the last two school years for schools in the Oakland Activities Association and have received its fair share of feedback. The goal is to conduct broadcasts of games throughout the state of Michigan, especially in the larger populated regions.


“MSN has done a great job with broadcasts in our league (Macomb Area Conference),” said Trevor Foster, current head coach of the Romeo girls soccer program, goalkeepers coach for Oakland University’s soccer programs, and director at the Michigan Goalkeepers Academy. “I know the girls love it. And I know some of the parents were putting their earphones on and listening to the game when they were (in the stands) and it gives relatives a chance to watch games that they normally wouldn’t be able to.


“It’s as close to professional (broadcast) as any broadcast of high school soccer that you will see out there,” added Foster. “Plus, they do all types of (amateur and pre-professional) leagues out there (in Michigan).”



“We were very pleased, especially with the knowledge of high school soccer in the state of Michigan from the play-by-play announcers and color commentators,” said Todd Heugh, the current director of athletics at Troy Athens High School and a former coach at the school. “They put together a valuable (product) and the games are live on YouTube for everyone to watch, even if you are (a relative or an alumni) not in the area. I know coaches go on there (YouTube), too, to watch games of an upcoming opponent.”


The PMG staff has a goal of 100-plus games this fall from mid-August through November. The Michigan Soccer Network conducted a record 50 remote or in-person broadcasts during the month of June.


PMG also has contacts within Michigan, the Midwest and even in different parts of the U.S. and have become broadcast partners for more than 15 different leagues or franchises within those leagues over the past three years. PMG has multiple broadcasting rights for within the USL-League Two, USL-W League, UPSL, MWPL, NISA, WSPL and more and constantly expanding its web of coverage both on various YouTube channels and on our website at www.michigansoccernetwork.com. It has broadcasted more high school boys soccer and high school girls soccer at more than 75 high schools in Michigan.


“MSN has been a great media partner for the Bucks and AFC,” said Costa Papista, President of the Flint City Bucks and Flint City AFC of the USL-League Two and USL-W League, respectively. “The production and overall quality of our live broadcasts are professional grade. Flint City fans, sponsors and supporters greatly appreciate the MSN quality. We are always receiving excellent feedback and comments from our fans and visiting fans as well.”  


And now the busy season starts in earnest with high school, college and youth club team beginning the 2024-25 school year.
