High school football game delayed by eligibility arguments to be played Tuesday

Michigan's final high school football district semifinal will be played Tuesday, Nov. 3. Grand Rapids Catholic Central (7-2) will host Comstock Park (4-5) in the 128th district semifinal of the 2026 postseason at CC's field on Tuesday, according to the Michigan High School Athletic Association's website. The school confirmed to the Free Press it will host the game Tuesday night. The game was originally scheduled for Friday, along with the majority of other first-round playoff matchups in Michigan , but it was removed from the schedule on Thursday. The MHSAA announced it was withdrawing Grand Rapids Catholic Central , which entered the postseason as the top-seeded team in Division 5 with a 7-2 record, for the use of an ineligible player during the regular season. Using an ineligible player means a team must forfeit the games in which they participated, which took five wins off GRCC's resume and left the Cougars without the requisite playoff points to make the final 32. In response to the MHSAA's decision, the school released a statement saying the student in question transferred to the school in January 2026. His family moved over the summer, and the school received a letter from the MHSAA confirming

Former Mt. Pleasant Indian Boarding School Recognized for National Significance

The Mt. Pleasant Indian Industrial Boarding School has been elevated to a national level of significance by the Keeper of the National Register of Historic Places. According to the Saginaw Chippewa Indian Tribe of Michigan, the designation formally recognizes the site as a surviving representative of the federal off-reservation boarding school system. Originally listed at the state level in 2018, the historic district includes six brick buildings situated on 15 acres within the Isabella Indian Reservation. Of the more than 2,200 Michigan sites on the National Register, it becomes one of only 144 listed at the national level of significance, and one of 8 recognized for American Indian heritage. Established by Congress in 1891, the facility operated from 1893 to 1934, housing between 300 and 375 children annually from kindergarten through eighth grade. According to tribe officials, approximately 225 students died while attending the institution during its operations. An annual Honoring, Healing, and Remembering event celebrates the closing of the school on June 6th, and recognizes the suffering of those children.
