Bulldog attacks more efficient than Vikings’ in district final
It’s a good line at driving school, at the end of a Sturgill Simpson chorus, and on the volleyball court. It boiled down to the Bulldogs putting the ball down between the lines much better Thursday, Nov. 5, as the Ionia varsity volleyball team took a three-set win over the Lakewood girls in the MHSAA Division 2 District Final at Lakewood High School.

Hudson football rewrites record book, routs Springport for regional title
HUDSON — Come playoff season, an air raid siren is Thompson Field’s traditional accompaniment to every touchdown scored by the home team. It has been for more than 30 years. The siren rang through the historic venue nine times on Friday, Nov. 13, as Hudson cruised to a 61-20 win over Springport in the Division 8 regional championship. Or at least — it should have. After the Tigers’ first touchdown, the referees incorrectly informed coach Dan Rogers that the siren was prohibited under the Michigan High School Athletic Association rulebook. For the remainder of the first half, it wasn’t used. During halftime, however, the referees corrected themselves. They told Rogers the MHSAA’s siren ban only applies to indoor stadiums. In the second half, the familiar siren returned as Hudson moved one step closer to playing at Ford Field in Detroit. Campbell, Beal rewrite record books It took one drive for junior running back Beckett Campbell to cement himself in Hudson football history. By the night's conclusion, he became the program’s all-time leading rusher with nearly 5,000 career yards in a Tiger uniform. “It means everything,” Campbell said. “But obviously I couldn’t do it without everyone who’s been with me along

Hudson, Britton Deerfield look to keep playoff runs alive in crucial Week 12 matchups
Hudson and Springport met on the gridiron for the first time last season. By halftime, the Tigers knew they were regional champions. On Friday, for the second straight year, Hudson (10-1, 1st in LCAA) will host Springport (10-1, 1st in Big 8) at Thompson Field with a regional title on the line. Beckett Campbell stole the show last time around. The running back had a career night with 14 carries for 359 yards and five touchdowns to lead the Tigers to a 68-22 win over the Spartans as a sophomore. Campbell, now a junior, will lead Hudson once more against the Big 8 Conference champions. Springport retained momentum from its program-best 11-1 season in 2025. The Spartans ran the table with an undefeated 8-0 record in conference play. Their only loss this season came in Week 3, a 42-13 loss to top-ranked Beal City. Last season, Springport’s offense was led by senior quarterback Gibson Overweg. His younger brother, sophomore Rip Overweg, has since filled his shoes. Rip has led a Spartan offense that prides itself on running the ball and making high-percentage throws. Last week, he accounted for four total touchdowns in Springport’s 34-22 district final win over Decatur. “[Overweg]
