I agree with rrggmm. Hudson had a great senior class of 32 strong. Most of them played together from 3rd grade on. Although they did not make the playoffs, they had an excellent season and are to be commended. Their future is extemely bright. Several of them have been offered opportunities to attend the Naval Academy, and others have received the Army ROTC scholarship. Others will be going to serve our Country straight to the Marine Corps, and many others will be attending some of our nation’s best colleges. I wish them all the best of luck and success!

Hudson had a very special class of seniors this year. They were 8-2 and there only two losses came againist (Solon/Twinsburg) which made the playoffs as top seeds. The two loses of Hudson both came in the 4th quarter of each game. Also Hudson would have beat Lakewood or Jackson even if they won a few extra games (which they always normally do). For them to lose in a tie carried out to the hudreth decimal point and to be tied after the first tie-breaker , then the second tie-breaker and to lose in the rarely used third tie-breaker is heartbreaking! Hudson would have went very far in the state playoffs. They were on a roll..

I do feel bad for the Hudson players and coaches. But hey that is life. Not everybody gets a trophy.
