Mt. Morris/ Clio Herald

Your local newspaper serving the northern part of Genesee County focusing on Mt. Morris and Clio alo Morris-Clio Herald to reflect that local focus.

The Genesee County Herald was founded in 1933 to serve as a weekly newspaper for rural Genesee County, USA. As rural markets grew and became more populated, The Herald became more focused on Northern Genesee County and in particular the communities of Mt. Morris and Clio as well as the surrounding townships, school districts, etc. In fact, the name of the newspaper was formally changed to the Mt.

In the early 1980's, to augment the paid circulation Herald, we launched a new shopping guide known as The Crossroads Advertiser. This new publication offered a very affordable means for businesses, both small and large, to get their advertising messages delivered to every door step in the area. The Birch Run-Bridgeport Herald began its weekly service to southern Saginaw County in 1985 quickly became a household name and a voice for the communities it serves. Publisher Mike Harrington and his long line of experienced and dedicated staff members have helped some of even the smallest local businesses become successful. We take pride in our customers' success and on offering each of them the personal attention they deserve when it comes to their marketing needs. Today, the combination of two paid circulation newspapers, which are the legal newspapers of record for their respective communities, and the total market coverage of The Crossroads Advertiser shopping guide, gives you the one-two punch unavailable elsewhere in our market.

CLIO – High School football will kick off Thursday night, and the Greater Flint Area will be treated to several notable matchups, including a big one at Clio High School.

The Mustangs will play host to their neighborhood rival, Mt. Morris, in one of the area’s most-played rivalry games.

Thursday’s contest will be the 74th meeting between Mt. Morris and Clio, and it will mark the second straight year the Maginn Trophy will go to the winner.

Former Genesee County Herald owner/publisher Don Maginn awarded a traveling trophy to the winner of the Mt. Morris-Clio football game from 1931-47.

After a 76-year absence, the Maginn Trophy was reintroduced to the rivalry in 2023, and Mt. Morris took possession of it, courtesy of a 7-0 victory over Clio on Aug. 24, 2023 at Atwood Stadium in Flint.

The Mustangs haven’t beaten the Pantheres since they fashioned a 30-18 triumph on Aug. 27, 2015 at Mt. Morris.

The Panthers lead the overall series 41-30-2.

Both programs will be hoping to get their seasons off to a positive start on Thursday. Clio fashioned a 3-6 overall record and Mt. Morris ended 2-7 last year.

The Mustangs and Panthers are hoping a win over their archrival will catapult them to a winning season.

Clio has not boasted an above .500 mark since it ended 5-4 in 2001. Mt. Morris’ last winning record was a 7-4 slate in 2008.

Thursday’s game will start at 7 p.m. at Clio’s Pride Stadium.
