Northern Michigan high school football scores, updates for Week 1
The high school football season in Michigan has finally arrived, with MHSAA teams kicking their 2023 season off across the state.
A number of teams across Emmet, Charlevoix, Cheboygan and Otsego counties will begin things on the road, though there’s plenty of home action for fans to catch.
A pair of heavyweights at the Division 7 level kick off Friday in Charlevoix, with the Rayders welcoming in Traverse City St. Francis, while old Big North Conference foes Gaylord and Traverse City West meet in a non-conference matchup in Gaylord on Friday.
