JEROMESVILLE — The Hillsdale community made its pride impossible to miss this week.

From families and teachers to alumni and longtime fans, Falcon Nation filled our inbox with words of encouragement ahead of Saturday’s championship game.

Below are the messages you sent to the team as they prepare for their return to Canton — this time with a shot at redemption and a Division VII state title.

May these notes remind the Falcons how much Jeromesville and the surrounding community are behind them.

You all have worked so hard and all are so deserving of this win so when you step out there today, don’t just play. Compete. Fight for every single point, every single play. Make it count. Because that’s the tone you set—not just for today’s game, but for the rest of your life. And when you get out there, remember one thing: you are your own biggest obstacle, and the only one who can truly decide to quit is you. So don’t. #WE BELIEVE

Watching this program grow and seeing the dedication, teamwork, and heart you all bring to the field has been incredible. You’ve carried on the legacy with pride, discipline, and unity — the same spirit that defines what it means to be part of this team.

Play hard, trust each other, and leave everything on that field. No matter the outcome, you’ve already made your school, your families, and your community proud.

Wishing you all the best of luck — go show them what you’re made of!

This Saturday is your moment. All the hard work, early mornings, late nights, and sacrifices have led to this opportunity—State. You’ve earned every inch of this, and now it’s time to show everyone just what you’re made of!

Remember, this isn’t just about the win. It’s about pride, heart, and leaving everything you’ve got out on that field. Play for each other, for the school, and for everyone who’s supported you along the way. Trust in your training, trust in each other, and play with everything you’ve got.

We’re all behind you—every fan, every coach, every teammate. You’ve already made us proud, now go finish what you started.

Let’s bring it home boys 💙💛
