That is Westland John Glenn in suburban Detroit. John Glenn Rockets and Plymouth Wildcats are in the same conference (Kensington Lakes? or something like that).

That field still looks very familiar, the first friday night Varsity football game I ever officiated was at that field (Fall of 1992). I was over there with three other British football officials on vacation staying with local officials. We worked Thursday night JV games and some Monday afternoon small college freshman games.

At the last minute, someone dropped out of a crew at John Glenn. Rather than shuffle folks around from other crews and since we Brits were all registered with MHSAA, the assigner decided to put one of us on the game and he had us draw straws for the slot.

I have the cheque from that game framed on my office wall - meant more to me to keep it as a momento than have the $35.

As for the actual play, I can't really see from this YouTube footage if the knee is down or not.
