Hudson football rewrites record book, routs Springport for regional title

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.

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
