During the Sheboygan North–Sheboygan South broadcast from North High School, announcers reported technical and staffing issues that affected coverage. Mike Martin, play-by-play announcer, said the booth was "catching a lot of noise" from the field microphone and asked the production team to address it; that intermittent interference was mentioned multiple times during the broadcast.
Commentators also noted the production was operating with a reduced crew. Martin identified Scott Maloff as the director and Eric Wiesman as a camera operator and said three regular cameramen were out for the night; those staffing constraints were cited as the reason the team would skip postgame player interviews because of the senior walk and other on-field activities.
Tom Dombek of the Sheboygan Press was mentioned in the press box as present for part of the broadcast; the commentators said they might try to include him at halftime. The announcers explained that the microphone noise and limited camera staffing affected replay and headset audio and contributed to decisions to shorten or cancel interviews after the final whistle.
"We have some very bad noise coming on our headsets again; it's from the field," Chris Wright said during the first half, according to the transcript. The broadcast team repeatedly asked for the field microphone to be adjusted, and in the postgame sign-off the announcers reiterated that interviews would be skipped because of the evening’s other activities.
The issues described were operational and did not affect the on-field result reported by the broadcast team, which closed by recapping the score and basic statistics. The production notes may be useful to the athletic department and station staff planning future home broadcasts.
