About the Regionals, State Semifinals and Neutral Sites The regional playoffs follow bracket format, beginning with the regional quarterfinals. Regional Quarterfinals (Nov. 2 and 3): During the first round, the higher seed hosts the game at its home stadium or the stadium of its choosing. The No. 8 seed will play at the No. 1 seed, the No. 7 seed at No. 2, etc. NEUTRAL SITES: Regional Semifinals (Nov. 9 and10), Regional Finals (Nov. 16 and 17) and State Semifinals (Nov. 23 and 24): Neu- tral sites are selected by the OHSAA. There are many factors that go into determining playoff sites, such as quality of field surface, seat- ing capacity, quality of lighng, size of locker rooms and distance from field, press box size, parking, and a separate locker room for officials. Aſter all those factors are taken into consideraon, it must be confirmed that the site is available and willing to host a playoff game on the date needed. The OHSAA cannot mandate that a specific site be available and it is rare to have an available site exactly halfway between the two compeng schools. Host sites keep revenue from concession stands and parking and they also receive a predetermined rental fee from the OHSAA, which covers game expenses.

Welcome to Week 12 Last week, 224 schools qualified for the 2018 OHSAA football play-offs. Now 112 remain in Week 12 for the regional semifinals, which will be played at neutral sites selected by the OHSAA. See below for more information on neutral sites.

About the Regionals, State Semifinals and Neutral SitesThe regional playoffs follow bracket format, beginning with the regional quarterfinals. Regional Quarterfinals (Nov. 2 and 3): During the first round, the higher seed hosts the game at its home stadium or the stadium of its choosing. The No. 8 seed will play at the No. 1 seed, the No. 7 seed at No. 2, etc. NEUTRAL SITES: Regional Semifinals (Nov. 9 and10), Regional Finals (Nov. 16 and 17) and State Semifinals (Nov. 23 and 24): Neu-tral sites are selected by the OHSAA. There are many factors that go into determining playoff sites, such as quality of field surface, seat-ing capacity, quality of lighting, size of locker rooms and distance from field, press box size, parking, and a separate locker room for officials. After all those factors are taken into consideration, it must be confirmed that the site is available and willing to host a playoff game on the date needed. The OHSAA cannot mandate that a specific site be available and it is rare to have an available site exactly halfway between the two competing schools. Host sites keep revenue from concession stands and parking and they also receive a predetermined rental fee from the OHSAA, which covers game expenses.

In the Beginning… to Seven DivisionsWhen the OHSAA created the football playoffs in 1972, there were three divisions (called Class A, AA and AAA) and only one playoff qualifier per region (12 total playoff qualifiers). Now in its 46th year, the postseason has expanded to seven divisions and 224 total playoff qualifiers. Expansion occurred in 1980 to five divisions and two qualifiers per region, and then again in 1985 to four qualifiers per region. In 1994, a sixth division was added, while in 1999, the number of qualifiers per region increased to eight. The playoffs expanded to seven divisions in 2013.

Proving the PollstersAll 70 teams that were ranked in the Final Associated Press state poll qualified for the playoffs and they went 59-11 in the first round of the playoffs. Of note, In Division VII, Leipsic knocked off AP No. 1 Sycamore Mohawk, 40-14, in Region 26. In Division III, Thornville Sheri-dan defeated AP No. 2 Bellbrook, 27-19, in Region 10.

Three poll champs in 2017 also won state titles on the field, including Trotwood-Madison (Div. III), Steubenville (Div. IV) and Maria Stein Marion Local (Div. VI). Also in 2016, two unranked teams reached the state finals, including Dresden Tri-Valley (Div. III, lost to Trotwood) and Minster (Div. VII, defeated Cuyahoga Heights).

State Championships ScheduleThe state championship games return to Canton this year at Tom Benson Hall of Fame Stadium. One division will be selected to play its state championship game on Thursday, Nov. 29 (7:30 p.m. kick-off). Then there will be three state championship games on Friday, Nov. 30, followed by three championship games on Saturday, Dec. 1. Game times on Friday and Saturday are 10 a.m., 3 p.m. and 8 p.m. The divisional assignments will be announced after the state

semifinal games.

Noting the Undefeated and the .500Only 24 teams across Ohio went undefeated during the regular-sea-son, which is the second-fewest in the playoff era (since 1972 - only 22 teams went undefeated in 2015). Last weekend in the first-round, 20 of those undefeated teams won. There are two matchups in the regional semifinals that include unde-feated teams squaring off. In Region 5, No. 1 Akron Archbishop Hoban (11-0) takes on No. 5 Garfield Heights (11-0), while in Region 26, No. 2 Edgerton (11-0) will play No. 6 Pandora-Gilboa (11-0). Last week, three undefeated teams played their regional quar-terfinal game on the road, including Garfield Heights (Div. II, 5 seed in Region 5), McDonald (Div. VI, 5 seed in Region 21) and Pandora Gilboa (Div. VII, 6 seed in Region 26). Also of note, a record 11 teams with 5-5 records qualified for the playoffs this year. Only one of those 5-5 teams, Warren John F. Kennedy in Division VII, won their regional quarterfinal game.

Making HistoryEntering the 2018 season, 59 OHSAA member schools had nev-er made the football playoffs. That number decreased by one as Springfield Northwestern (Division IV, Region 16) qualified this year for the first time (lost in first round). The last team to win a state championship in its first year in the playoffs was Dublin Scioto in 1995. In 2017, four schools made the playoffs for the first time, includ-ing Lima Perry (Div. VII, Region 28), Galion Northmor (Div. VI, Region 23), Eastlake North (Div. II, Region 5) and Middletown Madison (Div. V, Region 20). The number of first-time playoff participants since 2000 included four in 2017, eight in 2016, eight in 2015, 10 in 2014, two in 2013, seven in 2012, eight in 2011, six in 2010, 14 in 2009, 12 in 2008, 14 in 2007, 10 in 2006, 12 in 2005, 16 in 2004, 12 in 2003, 21 in 2002, 17 in 2001 and 26 in 2000.

Two of them are in Division VII, including Ashtabula St. John (Region 25), which is back for the first time since 1987, and Franklin Furnace Green (Div.

Building on HistoryPages 10-16 of this release for the playoff history of each school that is currently in playoff position entering week 10 of the 2018 regular season.

Week 10 MoversMany schools needed to win their final regular-season game last weekend in order to clinch a playoff berth. Several schools had big wins to jump into the playoff field after being outside the Top 8 in their region heading into week 10. A total of 22 schools were outside the Top 8 in their region head-ing into week 10, but qualified for the playoffs. The biggest mover was Alliance (Div. III, Region 9), which went from 12th to sixth.

Coldwater and Marion Local Set Consecutive Playoff Wins RecordColdwater (streak ended in 2016) and Maria Stein Marion Local (streak ended in 2015) recently set the OHSAA record for most consecutive playoff victories with 24.

Championship Games Return to Canton After hosting the OHSAA state championship games in Columbus throughout the 1980s, natural grass was installed in Ohio Stadium in Columbus in the spring of 1990 and OSU asked the OHSAA to move its football state championship games to another location. The OHSAA found a home in Stark County, with Canton Fawcett Stadium and Massillon Paul Brown Tiger Stadium sharing the state championship games for 24 years from 1990-2013. The finals returned to Columbus from 2014-16 before returning to Canton for 2017 and 2018.

MAC Builds on Success(By Gary Rasberry, Celina Daily Standard) The Midwest Athletic Con-ference started in 1973, but it wasn’t until 1989 that the conference began its run of football dominance of the smaller divisions. From 1989, when Minster won the conference’s first state title, to 2015 when Fort Recovery won its first-ever state title and Coldwater cap-tured its sixth since 2005, the MAC has been regular visitors to the state championships game. In that span, the MAC has been missing from State Championship Weekend only three years (1991, 1993 and 2002). In 2003, Versailles, a five-time state champion before joining in the MAC in 2000, won its first MAC state football title, starting a streak where the MAC has brought home at least one title from either Stark County (Massillon or Canton) or Ohio Stadium every season except the 2009 season. In 2005, the MAC had its first double-championship weekend as Coldwater won the Division IV title in Canton and Delphos St. John’s won the Division VI state title a few hours later in Massillon. The MAC has had two football state champions eight times since 2005 (2005, 2006, 2007, 2012, 2013, 2014, 2015 and 2017.

In 2014, the MAC made state history in becoming the first confer-ence to win three state football championship titles in the same season Coldwater, Minster and Marion Local swept Divisions V, VI and VII. The MAC is 4-1 in Div. VII state championship games.

The MAC is 68-3 in first round playoff games against non-MAC schools since the playoffs expanded to eight qualifiers per region in 1999. (The three losses include a Versailles loss to Lima Central Catholic in 2005, a Delphos St. John’s loss to Arlington in 2014 and an Anna loss to Middletown Madison in 2017.) The MAC is 51-13 against non-MAC schools in OHSAA regional championship games. The MAC is 36-7 in state semifinal games against non-MAC schools.

As of November 4, 2018, the MAC has won 128 various OHSAA state team championships, including 33 in football.

Before the Playoffs… Historians have found that in most years since 1895, the media or a specific organization named an Ohio high school football state champion. The Associated Press began its polls in 1947 and the OHSAA created the playoffs in 1972. The research of mythical state champions dating back to 1895 has been compiled on the football page at OHSAA.org.

Skyview Networks to Provide Satellite Dis-tribution of OHSAA Radio Network Football Championship BroadcastsSatellite provider for Ohio’s pro teams to distribute OHSAA foot-ball finals from Canton

COLUMBUS, Ohio – Skyview Networks, the radio broadcast satellite provider for Ohio’s professional sports teams including the Cavs, Blue Jackets, Reds, Indians, Bengals and Browns, will once again distribute the OHSAA Radio Network broad-casts of the 2017 football state cham-pionship games. The football championship broadcasts, which had 51 affiliates in 2017, return to Canton Nov. 29, 30 and Dec. 1.

“Skyview Networks is pleased to partner with the OHSAA Radio Network to deliver state championship broadcasts to its affiliates,” said Matt Stys, Vice President of Business Development for Skyview Networks. “The football state championships in Ohio are a prestigious event and we are proud to add that to our client base, which includes hun-dreds of college and professional teams, many of which are in Ohio. The OHSAA Radio Network continues to grow every year and we look forward to being a part of that growth and service.”

Specializing in news and sports programming, Skyview Networks was formed in 1995 to provide broadcast services in the form of distribution, automation, and inventory management, as well as content for the radio industry. Com-bining cutting-edge technology, extensive resources and unmatched industry expertise, Skyview Networks is the partner of choice for advertisers, radio stations and sports organizations through-out North America.

Skyview Networks is already the satellite provider of the aforemen-tioned professional teams in Ohio along with ABC News Radio and ABC Sports Radio, meaning that most stations in Ohio already have Skyview Networks receivers and can automate the broadcasts.

The OHSAA Radio Network, which has been carried by 84 stations across Ohio, West Virginia and Kentucky, was created in 2010 to provide exceptional radio broadcasts of selected OHSAA state tournaments and partner with local affiliates to carry those broadcasts, along with public service announcements and promotional messages. Stations that carry broadcasts receive discounts or waivers for the rights fees they would normally pay to broadcast OHSAA regional and state tournaments.

OHSAA Radio Network Playoff Preview ShowsThe OHSAA Radio Network will produce and distribute a weekly 30-min-ute football playoff preview show throughout November. The show will include one local break (2:00) and will go around the state to preview each division. A link to the show will be emailed to stations for down-load.
