When fall arrives, football, across the country, is king. But here in the Upper Peninsula, many schools were seeing their programs cut due to enrollment numbers and funding dropping lower and lower. The answer? Eight-man football. It's been widely accepted, as Second Wave's Sam Eggleston notes this week.
It's almost hard to believe it's already the week before Labor Day, isn't it? We here at U.P. Second Wave are planning on celebrating in style--with a visit to a U.P. parade to celebrate and by taking a week away from publishing. Don't worry, we'll be back Sept. 14 with a new edition. Until then, feel free to read this week's stories or dive into our archives for some great reading.
