Stevenson's fans are to sit in the areas nearest Gates E & F at Ford Field. (A seating diagram is linked below.) Please check back on this page frequently, as we will be adding additional information before Wednesday as needed.

Parking in approximately 2,000 spaces in Olympia Entertainment lots adjacent to Ford Field and Comerica Park is $6 for cars.

Pre Sale tickets will go on sale Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday during all 3 lunches from 10:30 AM-Noon by the North Cafeteria.

Thank you. Ford Field Security Policies: Per Ford Field policy, please be aware of the following: 1. Fans waiting for an earlier game to conclude must wait/sit in end zone seating areas.

(Ford Field Seating Diagram may be found here) [PDF] If you purchase tickets at Ford Field, you can purchase those tickets at Gate A where there are 12 ticket windows or Gate G where there are 6 ticket windows. The $10 ticket permits you to attend any and all games that occur that day. Please refer to www.mhsaa.com for match-ups of other teams.

Parents of student spectators are encouraged to attend the game with their son/daughter. Due to the holiday weekend and logistics, SHS will not be providing student spectator buses. Ms. Hyman attended a MHSAA meeting on Sunday with all the other AD's that are have teams in the State Finals and those schools that are relatively close in distance to Ford Field are not providing student spectator buses due to the same reason(s) as listed above. Being that this is a short week due to the Thanksgiving holiday, the timeline to organize everything is VERY tight. We thank you for your understanding. Directions: You may find an MHSAA over map with parking areas at this link and a zoomed view closer to Ford Field at this link. General Directions listing to Ford Field may be found at this link.

Just to get to the State Finals is a massive uphill battle alone. It is hard to knock out the champ, and this champ was just in the "Big Detroit House" last year. And this may have been the biggest, literally, big champ in a long time. Macomb Dakotas' offensive and defensive lines have got to be some of the biggest high school kids I have seen in long time. Stevenson battled them as much as they could, but in the end, they were just one Goliath to big to overcome for anyone this year. All the props to the Spartans! You men have NOTHING to hang your heads low over. ALL HAIL SPARTANS!
