The Michigan High School Athletic Association (MHSAA) has introduced an enrollment cap of 250 students for high schools to compete in Division 8 football, the lowest tier of 11-player football, starting in the 2025-26 season. This move aims to protect smaller 11-player programs like the Frankfort Panthers, which regularly fields only 15-20 players, and encourages larger 8-player schools to transition back to 11-man football. The cap is intended to ensure that Division 8 schools play teams of similar size, addressing concerns over competitive fairness in postseason matchups.

When I learned the brown tarantula is also native to Missouri, I gasped, and when I say I'm not too fond of spiders of any genus is an understatement. It's psychological. They have too many legs.
