ROCKFORD, Mich. — Last week, Rockford rolled over previously undefeated Caledonia 42-16 to improve to 4-0.
On Tuesday, Rams head coach Brent Cummings was named the Detroit Lions High School Football Coach of the Week.
Rockford High School receives a $1,000 donation to the school's football program for winning the honor. Legendary Rams head football coach Ralph Mugner was named a Lions High School Football Coach of the Week back in 2005. Cummings was an assistant under Munger for 12 seasons after playing high school football at Belding and at the University of Michigan.
Cummings also received a certificate signed by Lions' head coach Dan Campbell and NFL commissioner Roger Goodell.
Each week during the 2023 high school football regular season, the Lions pick one coach from around the state to showcase who represents success both on and off the field and who is able to develop players' games and character.
The Lions coach of the year for 2023 will receive a $3,000 donation for their school. This is the 27th year the Lions have had a Coach of the Week program.
