Unveiling the 2020 Michigan High School Football Coaches Association East All-Star team offense
Although the Michigan High School Football Coaches Association had to make the tough decision to cancel its planned 38th annual East-West All-Star Game scheduled for June, it decided to still go ahead and pick the teams who would have played in the game at Saginaw Valley State University this summer. Not only that, but the MHSFCA has paired up with STATE CHAMPS! to run a simulated game on May 30.
Below are the members of the East All-Star team’s offensive squad (listed in alphabetical order by position group).
