Coaches’ Comments – “It has been a tough two years for us.  The players and coaches are working hard everyday to try and get our first win.  They are a close knit group with some good senior leadership.  The Huron League has many good teams in it and we look forward to competing every Friday night.“

FNV Outlook – Look for the Bears to improve in every area in 2019. Will this translate into a wining record? I won’t go as far as to say that but I do expect Jefferson to get a very early season victory in week 1. Confidence is a big factor in turning around a program, an early victory may do just that.
