2024 Ohio High School Playoffs

Yeah, I can see both GCL teams winning in Cincy tomorrow. St. X is playing hot at the right time. And Moeller looks like arguably the best team in the state. I’ll be at that game watching them handle Princeton
Moeller shut down Princeton. They have one complete team from top to bottom. It was still difficult to cover the loss of Jordan Marshall, so they have 2 RBs who good, but nowhere near his level. And the defense is tough, the DL get after it.
Lakota West made a game of it after going down 16-0 in the 1st half. And scored 13 unanswered, but still lost.
Another year, the GCL south sending a team to state

It's Saturday 11 am.. just how long do we have to wait for @bigdog3300 to do the recap we pay him to do?

PS Div 2 remaining 8 teams are 97-7 and that's with Hoban / Massillon at 22-4; better bring your big boy pants

Odds are really good that an undefeated team will not win Div I, II, III or IV

I'm sorry, I was stuck watching a 20-16 barn burner of a basketball game this morning :lol: I did put in a PTO request for a half day for this though boss.....

Updates!

D1
Got the Mentor vs. St. Ed's matchup for next week, but Mentor is really cooking right now....95-7 so far this playoffs, they're the pick for next week
St. Ed's did get a 7/3 'upset' over Perrysburg, for what it's worth
Centerville ended Dublin Coffman's Cinderella run and Wayne in an 8/5 over Hilliard Davidson, so a rare 8 to the regional finals. Centerville easily beat Wayne for the season finale, 38-14.
Pickerington North, a helluva 7 seed, advances and improves to 11-2. They'll get the #1 Olentangy Liberty - it'll show as a 1 vs 7 but it's a pick em, if not a slight edge to Pickerington North here
Moeller advances without much of an issue, St. X did the same just as we predicted boys. St. X vs Moeller, regional finals, hubba hubba. Moeller won the regular season matchup in a very odd 45-37 offensive affair.

I'll do the rest shortly from an easier location and after I've done a house visit to #6 from Northwestern....

The rematch the world wanted....Walsh Jesuit vs Hoban, going to be an elite atmosphere next week
Highland dispatching Whitehouse wayne 38-14 was surprisingly dominate, impressed me a ton.
Anderson vs. La Salle shaping up for a nasty R8 title game....they combined to win 79-0.
The best division in HS football, at least this side of the Mississippi


D3
Padua with a 7/3 over Benedictine, 42-28...one of the bigger surprises, Padua does seem to come alive in the playoffs though.
Bishop Watterson vs Steubenville next week will be the highlight of the division matchups
Bellbrook beating Wapakoneta surprised me as well, and London ended St Mary's run (sounded very British typing that)


D4
#1 seed down, Glenville demolishes Lake Catholic, 28-0
Perry cruised, 45-21, over Streetsboro. Perry vs Glenville, oooo baby!
Ontario over Shelby, 49-48, in front of 8500 fans....I heard from some that it was the best game they've ever witnessed. Ontario was down 48-26, Ohio State commit Bodpegn Miller took over in the 4th.
St. Clairsville vs Indian Valley next week in an anticipated 1 vs 2 clash
We have a 5 vs 10 R16 final with Taft and Archbishop Alter


D5
Pretty chalk for the most part - Ironton flipped the switch and looked like a much different team from the looks of it
They'll get....#14 Wheelersburg who continue their destiny run...Ironton started the year with a 37-7 win over Wheelersburg, doubt it will be much different this go around. Still, cool to see a #14 seed in the regional finals.
Another #1 seed down...Greenview loses 28-13 to Indian Lake


D6
#6 Dalton smashes #2 Springfield, 25-0. Their reward is Kirtland...Kirtland won the season opener against the Bulldogs by 21. Lots of rematches coming up next weekend.
#1 seed down...Hopewell-Loudon loses to Patrick Henry, 35-7.
Coldwater absolutely boiling (see what I did there...), they won 56-0. In their 3 games this playoff season they've won by a combined 170-7, how very Marion Local of them. And just for perspective, Marion Local whooped their ass 35-0, so imagine how D7 feels.


D7
#9 Cuyahoga Heights continue their run, beating #5 Warren JFK, 21-19.
#15 Delphos St. John's continues their run as well, 21-13 over Leipsic. A 1 vs 15 regional final...how bizarre...but give me the #1 Columbus Grove Bulldogs next week.
#1 Marion Local struggled to a 51-0 win over #4 Ansonia
Although next week will be interesting....Marion Local vs Minster, Marion Local won during the regular season by a score of only 21-0. That was by a good margin their lowest offensive output and closest game, and that was a home game for Marion Local. Will a neutral site make it any closer?

South Range vs Poland in the Region 17 Finals should be a heck of a matchup - South Range beat them 38-30 at home earlier this year. South Range has gotten some amazing performances from the defense in the second half of the season, I'm very curious to see how this one plays out. I have a previous commitment Friday night or I would go watch this one.
