SOUTHFIELD — It has been a while since we saw a high school football game. Sitting here in late June, we are closer to the beginning of the 2024 high school football season than we are to the end of the 2023 season.
Still, this past weekend was an opportunity for 70 of the top graduating seniors to put on the pads one more time as high school football players as the Michigan High School Football Coaches Association (MHSFCA) hosted its annual East vs. West All-Star Game at Lawrence Tech University. And, after a historic season here in Gaylord, one of its stars got an invite to the game and got the opportunity to put on the Blue Devil helmet one last time.
GHS all-state defensive back and Northwood signee Ty Bensigner participated in the game, intercepting a pass in the second half of a 13-12 victory for his West All-Stars team.

Bensinger is no stranger to picking off opposing quarterbacks, leading a staunch Gaylord defense with four interceptions in 2023. Still, there may not have been one easier than the one he had in the game on Saturday; sitting back in his safety position, Bensinger barely had to move when an underthrown ball to the boundary landed right in his lap.
“I was just like ‘Please don’t drop this, please don’t drop this thing’,” said Bensinger. “It hit me in the chest, I got to the sideline. I saw a big dude and stepped out (of bounds). It was sweet.”
