JACKSON TWP. — Jay Rohr heard his Jackson High School football team say all the right things. What the fifth-year head coach saw from the Polar Bears on Aug. 28 didn't match their words. Jackson's 55-35 loss to Hudson back in Week 2 marked a turning point in the 2026 season, and now the Polar Bears find those same Explorers returning to Fife Stadium for a second-round playoff game in Division I, Region 1.
