The Muskegon Catholic Central football team made history in late November by winning its fourth consecutive Division 8 state title.
The Muskegon Big Reds also made big news by qualifying for the state football finals for the fourth time in five years. Thousands of Muskegon area fans made the trek to Detroit’s Ford Field on Thanksgiving weekend to watch the two local high school squads compete for state honors.
The football finals, and the impressive accomplishments of the Crusaders and Big Reds, are the featured stories in the December edition of the Local Sports Journal magazine, which is available for free at various local restaurants and retail stores.
The December magazine also includes a profile of the West Michigan Lake Hawks, Muskegon’s ABA basketball franchise, as well as the touching story of how former Mona Shores standout athlete Elijah Wilson bid a sad goodbye to the grandmother who raised him after the tragic death of his mother.
