Football playoff potentials for area teams

By Brian Plasters | Wednesday, October 28, 2009, 04:33 PM

Very unscientific and I won’t project who beats who, but here’s how area teams could advance to the state playoffs. This will be in Friday’s paper, as well.

• Springfield (6-3) needs to beat Wayne for a spot in Division I, Region 3 playoffs. It’s that simple, and also that difficult. Wayne (6-3) and hasn’t lost to a Springfield team since 2002.

• Tecumseh’s almost assured a first-round game, yet the Arrows (8-1) still have much to play for. A win at Bellefontaine gives them a share of the Central Buckeye Conference Kenton Trail Division and possibly a higher Region 8 seed.

• West Liberty-Salem (9-0) can clinch an undefeated regular season and the Ohio Heritage Conference by winning at Cedarville. Region 20 is especially crowded at the top, so a Tigers’ home playoff game is not automatic.

• Southeastern (7-2) needs to beat Triad to ensure its first playoff appearance since 2002. Should the Trojans beat Triad they have a shot at a playoff home game.

• Shawnee (6-3) needs to beat Stebbins (0-9) and hope a couple things fall in place to go to the Region 12 playoffs.

• Graham (7-2) first needs to beat rival Urbana (5-4), then a win and some help puts the Falcons in the Region 10 playoffs. The Falcons already clinched a share of the CBC Mad River title.

• A scenario exists for Catholic Central (5-4) to make the Region 24 playoffs. First the Irish need to beat Mechanicsburg (6-3), one of its biggest rivals. Mechanicsburg’s run of seven straight playoff appearances looks to be over, even with a win.
