The landscape of Michigan high school football has been changing over the past several years with smaller schools becoming 8-man teams. With a few more Southwest Michigan schools electing to switch to an 8-man team, a new league has been announced for the 2019 season.
The new league will be known as the Southwest Michigan 8 man Football League. Area schools forming the new league are…

Lawrence Athletic Director Aaron Amthor will serve as the league’s commissioner. Amthor will join Phil McDonald and Scott Bradfield Friday morning at 7:30 on Morning Sportsbeat to discuss the new league.
