Southfield celebrated the Southfield A&T football win of the Division 1 State Championship with a parade Dec. 9.
Southfield A&T coach Aaron Marshall led the team to the championship and was named the Football Division 1 Coach of the Year by the Michigan High School Football Coaches Association.
The Warriors had never so much as held a district championship in the school’s history, but as Southfield A&T took the field for the Michigan High School Athletic Association Division 1 State Finals Nov. 26 at Ford Field against the two-time Division 1 defending state champions Belleville, the Warriors were banded together for one final gridiron matchup in the brightest lights in Michigan high school football.
It will be an entirely new look Southfield A&T next season as the majority of the team’s core will be graduating this year, but the foundation for success has been laid by the 2024 senior class for future seniors to follow.
While it may be a new group, expectations will be high for the Warriors as they enter next season as the defending Division 1 state champions.
